Cousiño-Macul Antiguas Reservas

About

Cousiño-Macul Antiguas Reservas is a renowned Cabernet Sauvignon from Chile's Maipo Valley. First introduced in 1927, it embodies a classic style that blends New World ripeness with Old World elegance. The wine is crafted from the finest grapes harvested manually from the estate's vineyards, including the historic Buin and Macul estates. The winemaking process involves cold maceration and fermentation, followed by aging in French oak barrels for twelve months, which enhances its complex flavors and smooth tannins. This full-bodied wine presents aromas of dark cherry, blackberry, and spices, evolving into flavors of black currant, plum, and chocolate. The velvety texture and long, elegant finish make it an ideal pairing for dishes like grilled ribeye, filet mignon, or hearty stews. The wine's structure allows for excellent aging potential, making it a timeless choice for wine enthusiasts. Its rich nuances are a testament to the Maipo Valley's unique terroir and the winery's commitment to quality and sustainability.
