Baettig Vino de Viñedo Los Compadres Cabernet Sauvignon 2023

The 2023 Vino de Viñedo Los Compadres was sourced from numerous old-vine sites in the Coronel de Maule region, all of which were planted with País over a century ago and have been grafted with Cabernet Sauvignon in the past few decades. It provides a unique perspective on Chilean Cabernet Sauvignon, characterized by a weightless density and umami-like texture that is entirely distinctive. The palate is fruit-driven yet impressively refined, featuring a seamless profile and a tense, grippy finish. Drink date: 2025-2035. (Matthew Luczy,robertparker.com,March 13, 2025)
