The 2013 vintage was characterized by its cool growing conditions, which provided moderate overall temperatures, especially during the spring months. Better conditions then ensued during bud-break and flowering, which helped progress the vines’ progress thanks to warm summer days and cool nights. A good stretch of higher temperatures from mid-January through to February helped accelerate the ripening of the crop. This was followed by a long and even ripening phase in March, giving the fruit an extended hanging period. The harvest arrived in mid-April delivering a remarkable crop of beautifully rich, ripe and intense fruit.
In March 2015, just after bottling, Eduardo Chadwick noted that the new vintage ‘combines exceptional structure and elegance with a sense of restraint, providing great pleasure even at this early stage of its life.’
CRITICAL ACCLAIM: At The Wine Advocate, Luis Gutiérrez picked up Notes of red cherries intermixed with the more classical blackberries and tobacco leaves, spices and cigar box aromas; it is very subtle, layered and complex, even though the wine shows very young ... The result is a fresher wine with moderate alcohol and the oak feels better integrated, even though it’s still mostly new. There are the tell-tale Cabernet tannins, very polished and fine, but with grip; the texture is velvety, lifted by a fine thread of acidity. 94 points
James Suckling clearly approved of the wine’s new stylistic shift and came out strongly in its favour when he tasted it in 2015 This pure Cabernet Sauvignon shows wonderful, subtle eucalyptus and black currant character. Cold stones and roses too. It’s firm and linear with a full body, compacted tannins and a lightly chewy and tangy finish. A red with form and strength. 98 points
