Cabernet Sauvignon Grillos Cantores 2015

- 90 points -

The 2015 Grillos Cantores Cabernet Sauvignon is varietal and, in the context of the rest of the 2015s, quite fresh and with moderate ripeness. It's perhaps the character of Alto Cachapoal where the grapes are grown. It's an approachable Cabernet with some dusty tannins, somewhat rounder than the spicier vintages before this one. They couldn't produce a 2016 of this wine because of the strong rains. 39,000 bottles. It was bottled in March 2017.
