Santa Carolina Cabernet Sauvignon Reserva 2017
Valle del Colchagua, Valle del Rapel, Region del Valle Central, ChileThe eastern edge of the Colchagua Valley is home to these fresh, spicy cabernet sauvignon grapes. Deep rocky soils and warm, dry days cooled by nighttime mountain breezes make for an elegant style at a super affordable price. Post-fermentation, the wine spends eight months in French oak and is bottled one year later. Expect that classic Chilean red fruit, cassis, nose with herbal undertones. The weight is medium, the flavours a mix of berries and cedar - a perfect midweek red that is ready to serve with grilled meats or a pappardelle alla Bolognese.
