Description
he Errazuriz Don Maximiano Founder’s Reserve 2012 is a standout red blend from the Aconcagua Valley, Chile. Named after the winery’s founder, this prestigious wine epitomises elegance, power, and balance, showcasing the best of Chilean terroir.
In the glass, it presents a deep, opaque ruby hue. The nose is expressive with layers of ripe dark fruits like blackcurrant, plum, and blackberry, alongside hints of cocoa, espresso, and sweet spices. There’s also a lovely earthy complexity with touches of cedar and tobacco, indicating the wine’s time in oak.
On the palate, it’s rich and full-bodied, with silky tannins and a balanced acidity that adds freshness to the powerful fruit core. Flavours of black cherry, dark chocolate, and a touch of vanilla unfold, followed by subtle notes of graphite and a dash of pepper. The structure is impressive, making it both approachable now and promising for further ageing. The finish is long, lingering with hints of cassis, dark chocolate, and a savoury touch of spice.
