Errazuriz - Chadwick Don Maximiano Founder's Reserve 2012 (2 Fl.)

Parker: The 2012 Don Maximiano Founder's Reserve is basically Cabernet Sauvignon with about 12% Carmenere, 8% Petit Verdot and 5% Malbec, from their oldest vineyards. It has more grapes adding freshness as they come from the stony soils closer to the river to compensate a warmer vintage. It has a classical aroma of cassis, blackberries, tobacco, graphite and cedar wood, with a medium to full-bodied palate with abundant, fine and polished but still a little grainy tannins, big bones and good concentration. It has the balance and stuffing to age well.
