Tasting Set Includes:
- Vina Leyda Sauvignon Blanc
Pale yellow color with greenish hues. A mineral and expressive wine with great aromatic intensity. Upfront notes of perfumed white fruit give way to ripe citrus fruit, like grapefruit and mandarin, along with a subtle herbaceous character. The palate is fresh with crisp acidity and a juicy, citrus finish. - Lapostolle Cuvee Alexandre Cabernet Sauvignon
Intense, deep red color with purple edges. Expressive and intense nose with cassis and black currant aromas. Elegant palate with round and persistent tannins, with fresh cherry along with a light toast flavor. Pairs well with high vored dishes as lamb shank with herbs or pork fillet with mustard and honey. - Santa Rita Triple C
This outstanding wine has a deep and intense ruby-red color. The bouquet is revealed in layer upon layer of complexity that appear throughout the tasting and vary with time in the glass. Red fruits and black fruits such as black currant and blueberry are present along with notes of tobacco, chocolate, and spice. Elegant and well balanced with good structure and enough depth to age well over the years to come.
