Cork

A new wine for the Place de Bordeaux this year. This is Santa Rita's flagship wine, a 100% Cabernet Sauvignon cuvée, cultivated in the Alto Jahuel region in the Maipo Valley. Liquorice and eucalyptus notes fill the aroma alongside dark fruits inviting you in. The palate is soft and smooth with precise, driving fruit and a lovely perfumed and refreshing edge. Excellently made and a brilliant wine to accompany food. Made by winemaker Sebastián Labbé, who took over the technical direction of Santa Rita in January 2017. After maceration skins are pressed using a vertical basket press. The press wines separated, matured and a key component of the final blend. The 2018 was aged in barrels for 18 months using 83 % new and 17 % second year French oak barrels and bottled without filtration or clarification.
