De Martino Legado Reserva Cabernet-Sauvignon Maipo 2013

Dark ruby color. Aromas of mint, red berries, spices, coffee, clay and light oak notes. Tasty, structured but still have charm with its bright flavors of fruit and greens, spices and a slightly rustic finish. I like that type of wine and dare to put some aside to let it age and you’ll be rewarded! Excellent (91)

Light purple color. Shy nose that opened with air to give red berries, earth, spices and incense aromas. Flavors of clay, earth, spices then fruit and flowers notes. Reserved for now, this wine haven’t bloomed yet. Very light heat on the finish. Champion in originality, it doesn’t sink on the “funky” side of some naturally made wines. Very good (89)

Dark ruby color. Typical nose of a Cabernet based wine beginning its maturation. It’s fine, fruity, have a hint of leather, of tobacco, some spices and bitter chocolate aromas. Silky yet still concentrated, this is just so good. Long tasty finish. This is the type of wine that would change your mind about cellaring Reserva range Chilean wines. For its showing and how much I’ve liked this wine, I’m giving this note: Excellent (91)
