La Playa Gran Reserva Cabernet Sauvignon 2021
Chile, Maipo Valley
Description
This wine is ruby-red in colour with nuances of deep, bright ruby. It has highly intense aromas of red fruits such as cherries and strawberries, interwoven with notes of licorice, cassis, bay leaves and some mint, mocha and toasted oak. A palate of elegant concentration and smooth volume, with ripe, rounded tannins and a long fruity finish makes this an ideal wine to accompany meals.

Viticulture
The grapes were harvested by hand and transported to the winery in Peralillo. Low-temperature maceration was carried out for 5 days, followed by fermentation in stainless steel tanks with regular tamping. The wine was later decanted into oak barrels of 300 and 500 litres, both new and used, in addition to a 3,000-litre cask of oak for 12 months. The wine was filtered through 3 microns prior to bottling.
