Errazuriz Don Maximiano Founder's Reserve 2013
PLEASE NOTE - We have tasted this wine (April 2024) as we were made aware of some deterioration to the tops of corks showing some mustiness. Apart from the very top of cork, the remainder of the corks are in perfect condition and this has not affected the wine in any way and is still drinking perfectly.
79% Caberent Sauvignon, 10% Malbec, 6% Carmenere, 5% Petit Verdot. 22 months in French oak, 65% new. The lowering of the oak is the obvious step change here again. Lovely sandalwood notes are fragrant, more pot-pouri edges to the oak, lovely fresh fruit too, a little closed in this young wine, but has such lovely balance, such an agile, fresh palate with plenty of fruit but that intrinsic energy, more balsamic, delightful and balanced stuff.
