Santa Marta “Gran Reserva” Cabernet Sauvignon, Valle de Colchagua, Chile. 2018. Colchagua Valley in Chile is one of promising new regions for wine.
Aromas of barnyard hay, candied cherry flavors and hints of dill. It is cabernet sauvignon but the nose reminds me of Burgundy. On the palate you feel medium plus acid. Picking up flavors of cherry and leather. The tannins enhance the leather flavor by adding the texture. After being open for an hour, the edges of this wine are rounding out. The fruit is more present and the leather subsides. Hints of vitamin c throughout this wine. There is a medium build up of tannins as you drink.
