Caliterra Tributo Cabernet Sauvignon

A very deep attractive ruby red colour shows a young wine at the moment of its release.

On the nose the wine is intense, but elegant, with acid perfume notes probably coming from the cherry aromas that also outstand. Barrel scents emphasize more than usual, but with a couple of months of bottle ageing the wine will be completely integrated.

On the palate, very tasty notes and complex aromas enhance, although in a soft and elegant way. A long after tasting with a pleasant end.

Caliterra

Das Weingut Caliterra wurde 1996 als Partnerschaft zwischen der Familie Robert G. Mondavi und Viña Errázuriz gegründet. Sie teilten einen Traum: Hochwertige Weine zu produzieren, die das Potenzial der chilenischen Natur, des Terroirs und der Trauben widerspiegeln.

Das Colchagua-Tal ist die Heimat des Weingutes Caliterra. Im Herzen des Tals befindet sich das Grundstück, 200 Kilometer südlich von Santiago, 60 Kilometer von der Pazifikküste entfernt und 150 Meter über dem Meeresspiegel. Die weitgehend unberührter Natur, das mediterrane Klima, die kühlen Nächte und leichte Winde von der Pazifikküste sowie aus den Anden, die die Energie der Sonne mildern, ermöglichen die perfekte Reife, Intensität und Konzentration der Reben.

Die Reserva-Weine von Caliterra stammen aus den Anbaugebieten im Colchagua-Tal und reifen in französischer und amerikanischer Eiche heran, um den Weinen mehr Komplexität und ein elegantes Finale zu verleihen. Die Trauben für die pikanten, frischen Weißweine stammen aus den Lagen in den Curicó-, Maipo- und Casablanca-Tälern.

Die ersten Anbaugebiete Caliterras stammen von 1997. Damals umfassten sie 210 Hektar, auf denen Merlot, Carménère, Cabernet Sauvignon und Shiraz sowie in kleinerem Umfang Malbec angebaut wurde. 2005 kamen weitere 32 Hektar hinzu. Außerdem setzte Caliterra zunehmend auf seine Hanglagen und pflanzte dort im Jahr 2008 auf 46 Hektar Cabernet Sauvignon, Shiraz, Carménère und Viognier an. Das Weingut schöpft seitdem sein großes Potenzial noch wesentlich stärker aus.

Viña Carmen Gran Reserva Cabernet Sauvignon
This single-varietal Cabernet Sauvignon from the Maipo Alto Valley offers a multi-faceted bouquet. The Carmen Gran Reserva Cabernet Sauvingon smells of ripe berries such as black cherries and blackcurrants, a sweetish spice (mint, paprika and pepper) and tobacco. On the palate, this red wine from Chile is full-bodied, with a smooth texture and sweet, concentrated and velvety tannins. This Reserva has a great length.The Carmen Gran Reserva Cabernet Sauvingon was matured for 14 months in French oak barrels. The dry red wine is already a wonderful taste experience, but can also be stored for another 6 to 7 years.Viña Carmen was founded in 1850, making it one of the oldest wineries in Chile. The winery was also a driving force behind the renaissance of the Carmenere grape variety in the mid-1990s. The old Bordeaux grape variety had almost completely disappeared in France due to the phylloxera plague. However, it found its way to Chile at the time. There it remained undiscovered for decades, as Carmenere and Merlot vines are very similar. For many years, there was the "Chilean Merlot", which was particularly spicy with notes of green pepper. It was not until 1994 that it was discovered that the cause of these particular notes was a "stowaway", so to speak, in the growing regions: the Carmenere grape variety.Over the decades, Viña Carmen's outstanding locations in Chile and extensive experience in viticulture have earned it many international awards, both for the winery as a whole and for many individual creations. The Carmen Gran Reserva Cabernet Sauvingon, for example, received a proud 92 points from James Suckling for the current vintage and the Platinum Medal with 97 points at the Decanter World Wine Awards.Enjoy the Carmen Gran Reserva Cabernet Sauvingon with rabbit or duck as well as a more intense cheese such as parmesan or cheddar. The ideal drinking temperature is around 16-18 degrees. Tip: Open the wine about an hour before drinking.
