James Suckling (March 2023)Tasing Notes :
Intense garnet in color, this aromatic wine opens with notes of ripe red fruits such as strawberry and raspberries, with layers of blueberries, and blackcurrant. In addition, like a true Cabernet Sauvignon from Peralillo, the nose reveals an intense spicy component with notes of pepper, bay leaf and oregano. This aromatic complexity is accompanied by a good sugar acidity balance on the palate that boasts intense and persistent tannins. Undoubtedly, a juicy and palatable Cabernet Sauvignon, to drink now or keep for a few years.
The Secret Of Los Vascos Chagual
Chagual is the local name for Puya Chilensis, a plant native to Chile’s central region. The plant’s spectacular flower head can stand more than 13 feet high, making its silhouette emblematic of Los Vascos landscape. The Chagual shelters many species including a beautiful colored butterfly that is totally dependent on the Chagual. Butterflies lay their eggs (larvae) which feeds on the plant’s nutritious stems to eventually transform into a butterfly, which in turn pollinates the Chagual flowers. As the Chagual and butterflies share their life cycle and rely on one another to survive and thrive on the coastal region of Chile, the vineyard of Los Vascos and the community around Peralillo is also inextricably linked.
