"The 2018 Cabernet Franc Gran Reserva is blended with 7% Carmenere and 3% Petit Verdot from Colchagua and spent 12 months in French barrels. Garnet red in the glass, it delivers red currant and strawberry jam and herbal hints against a woody backdrop. In the mouth, it’s intense with active, tacky tannins that deepen the profile alongside the well-judged freshness. Best to keep it for another year at least." 

Winemaker Notes: 

"The Maquis Cabernet Franc is grown in the Colchagua Valley. The wine is made from grapes grown on the Maquis estate, between the Chimbarongo Creek and the Tinguiririca River in central Colchagua Valley. These elements are ideal for producing Cabernet Franc grapes that are full and rich, yet display balance and elegance."
