Errazuriz Max Cabernet Sauvignon Reserva 2014

Valle de Aconcagua, Region de Aconcagua, ChileThis Errazuriz MAX Cabernet Sauvignon Reserva is not to be confused with the Errazuriz Max Reserva Cabernet Sauvignon. Right... Well, at least the labels are different - this one is brand new. And according to the MAX label, this is sourced from the inland Aconcagua Valley and spent twelve months in French oak, the power of which is evident in the thick, full palate, dense with black cherry, inky dark florals and leather. Tannins are sticky and plentiful, finishing with a bitter cocoa powder dusting before a tsunami of heat (labelled 14 percent) on the end. Youthful and brash, but will calm a bit with a year in bottle. Best matched with equally powerful food, like fire grilled beef.Tasted: 25 February 2016Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:
