One of the best under $25 Cabernet’s I’ve had.
This won’t be for everyone but the style is juicy and balanced with red berries, red bell pepper, licorice, and spice. The tannin is slick and completes the structure nicely.

Sunday night and I have opened the 2016 Viña Errazuriz Max Reserva Cabernet Sauvignon. This is a blend of 89% Cabernet Sauvignon, 8% Cabernet Franc and 3% Petit Verdot.
On the nose is black cherry, blackberry, red & black currants, green peppercorn, black tea, spice and dusty earth.
The palate reveals notes of tart black cherry, blackberry, red & black currants, green bell pepper, a good dose of minerality and earth.
This is a round juicy full bodied wine with medium + electric acidity and medium sandy tannins that leads into a long fruit filled earthy finish. I hope everyone had a safe enjoyable weekend? Have a great week. Nostrovia! 🍷🍷🍷🍷

Good cab, very drinkable. Delicious notes of cassis. James Suckling 92 Pts, and only $16. Great value. Holds up ok on second day, but better to finish the bottle same day. Rating affirmed 6/22/18 @ PAG.

This wine must be very vintage dependent as none of the reviews I read remarked on the over powering funk in this 2014 wine. It is a shame as the dark fruits show a lot of potential. They are just over powered by the toasty oak and barnyard funk. Don't get me wrong, I love barnyard but this was way too much and thus could not finish the bottle.
