Penalolen Cabernet Sauvignon

Peñalolén winery was founded by Viña Quebrada de Macul owners Ricardo and Isabel Peña. They are focused on producing unique Chilean wines, full of personality and verve. The wines are made by winemaker Jean-Pascal Lacaze, well respected for his deft hand in producing memorable wines. All grapes are grown and hand harvested with meticulous care to guarantee the integrity of the fruit, and picked early in the morning when the weather is coolest. Peñalolén truly is a family-owned, boutique winery committed to making wines of distinction.

'The 2020 Cabernet Sauvignon has a dash of 15% Syrah from Peñalolén, Maipo Alto, and was aged for 8 months in 1/3 new barrels. Garnet-red in hue. The balsamic, redcurrant-inflected nose offers hints of cherry over a bed of cigar box. The liqueur-like palate is heated up by the alcohol from the warm year while the finely grained tannins and juicy feel make for a long lasting, fruity finish.' - Vinous Media
