Echeverría Founder's Selection Cabernet Sauvignon 2015

This iconic Cabernet Sauvignon was created as a dedication to Roberto Echeverria Snr, the founder and original winemaker at Vina Echeverria. This wine has undergone fermentation and 2 year's aging in oak barrels, resulting in a layered, rich and complex blend. Intense aromas on the nose of dark plum and blackcurrant blend with eucalyptus and menthol. The concentrated and soft palate display black pepper and bitter chocolate and its round and supple tannins make this wine very easy drinking and satisfying.

Fermented in 12.000 liter stainless steel vats for 10 days at 25-28ºC controlled temperature, with selected yeasts. Extended skin maceration for additional 10 – 15 days. 100% malolactic fermentation. Aged in 225 liter new French oak barrels for 18 months. The wine is blended and returns to barrels for 6 additional months.
