From Viña Tinajas Del Maule, whose wines are made from an estate vineyard Fundo Lagares del Maule in Villa Alegre, a cool area beneath the Andes 160 miles south of Santiago. Great terroir for lovely Cab, or, as the name roughly translates, Old Ugly, in this case.
More or less clean and neutral on the nose, with aromatic notes of peach and apple. The palate is juicy but sort of jumpy, with flavors of orange, pithy bitterness and roast corn. Good in this price range but seemingly on its way to being past its prime.
