Note di degustazione
The 2006 Viñedo Chadwick is a Cabernet Sauvignon with a 3% dash of Merlot, and was “refreshed” by cool conditions that delayed ripening by about 10 days. It was aged for 18 months in new French barrels. Garnet in hue. A nose of cedar, coconut, hints of cigar and ash, red fruit and touches of spice that lend greater depth to the overall profile. In the mouth, it’s dense but not heavy with a juicy flow, refined, slightly reactive tannins and intense flavor before a bold kick at the end. An elegant wine.

100% Cabernet Sauvignon (picked 19–29 April) planted at 670 m above sea level. TA 5.6 g/l, pH 3.56, RS 2.16 g/l. Slower ripening period than usual followed by a warm April led to wines with ripe and well-rounded tannins. Hand picked and sorted by hand. Total maceration time was 28–35 days. Stainless-steel fermentation, three pumpovers per day. Aged for 18 months in 100% new French oak barrels. Bottled 28 February 2008. Complex array of aromas on the nose. Very neat and fresh with a peppery grace note. Lots of fresh tannin and a certain hint of fermented blackcurrant-pastilles. Lots of vigour and potential. (JR)
Starts off with rose petals, stems, wet earth and blackberries. Full-bodied and super elegant. It's fresh and bright plus has density and richness. A tangy, sweet and sour finish. Drink now.
