2015 | Santa Ema | Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon

Elegant, sophisticated, and complex with fruity notes of black cherries and plums mingled with tobacco, coffee, and toast. Well structured and round with ripe tannins and abundant texture and a long finish.

Reviews:

• Wine Spectator: Dark plum and dried red berry flavors dominate this muscular red, with plenty of minty and savory accents. Medium-grained tannins support chocolate and cream details on the dinish. Drink now through 2021. 25,000 cases made.

• James Suckling: Dark berry and hints of lemon and rose petal. Medium to full body, fine tannins and a fresh finish. Drink now or hold.

Producer Information

Vinos Santa Ema is, hands-down, one of the best value/quality brands from Chile, offering one of strongest quality-to-price wine brands in the world today. Santa Ema’s founding Pavone family trace their history in Chile back to 1917 when they first came to the region as grape farmers. Nearly 100 years and four generations of hands-on experience gives Santa Ema a deep understanding of the Maipo Valley’s unique terroir. The family has established a 500 acre viticultural ‘path’ from the Andes Mountains to the Pacific Ocean, featuring the best terroir from each zone of Maipo: Alt a, Medio and Costa (Leyda). Extensive and selective vineyard ownership allows for creativity and innovation in the vineyards and winery, while guaranteeing quality control. The result is a collection of generous, elegant, regionally distinct wines that overdeliver. Winemaking: The portfolio commences with the excellent value offering, Select Terroir Reserva, which offers excellent fruit concentration, purity of its origin and unmistakable varietal typicity. The next tier up is Sant a Ema’s Reserva/Gran Reserva range. This is the winery’s most traditional and best known collection. Consistently awarded with medals and scores, including a coveted spot on the Wine Spectator Top 100. Perfect harmony and complexity are achieved through delicate barrel aging plus bottle aging. The Am plus line plays on the Latin word for ‘important, sophisticated, distinguished and honorable’. Amplus wines represent the union of tradition and modernity. These are exciting wines with tremendous complexity and elegance.
