Alba de Domus Cabernet Sauvignon

Medium garnet; medium plus intensity aromas of blackberry, black plum, subtle kalamata, tomato leaf, black pepper, dried herbs; dry, medium acid, medium plus tannins, high alcohol, medium plus intensity flavors with more perfume on the palate than on the nose, some spice and vanilla; medium plus finish, complex, concentrated, and good varietal flavors

I tried this wine and the less expensive Carmenere and a wine called Anka by the same winery and this was definitely the best of the three, that being said, I found it very good but not outstanding. It is very aromatic, but almost too intense and too perfumey. There was a noticeable amount of residual sugar. Still, enjoyable and interesting. #cabernet #cabernetsauvignon #cabernetfranc #merlot #chile

Alba de Domus – Cabernet Sauvignon 2019
Upper Maipo Valley, Chile 🇨🇱

Overview
A bold and powerful Cabernet Sauvignon (95–100%, often with a tiny fraction of Cabernet Franc depending on the vintage) from the famed Domus Aurea estate in the Upper Maipo Valley. Known for its mountain terroir, this wine shows the classic strength and rustic elegance of Chile’s best Cabernets.

Aromas & Flavors
Deep, complex aromatics of blackberries, black cherries, cassis, and dried figs, laced with espresso, dark chocolate, cedar, and tobacco leaf. A subtle earthy and mineral undertone speaks to its Andean foothill origins.

Mouthfeel
Full-bodied and texturized, with high intensity and firm structure. Tannins are bold yet polished, while the 15.4% ABV provides warmth and weight without overwhelming balance. The finish is long, layered, and espresso-driven, lingering with dark fruits and spice.

Winemaking Notes
Unfiltered and aged in French oak, this Cabernet is designed for longevity. The 2019 vintage already shows power and depth, but its construction suggests it will evolve beautifully over the next 8–12 years.

Food Pairing
Ideal with robust dishes: grilled ribeye, lamb shank, venison, or earthy stews. Also pairs wonderfully with aged Manchego or Parmigiano-Reggiano.

Verdict
Hot, intense, and layered — a true statement Cabernet from the Maipo Valley. Already climbing its prime, yet with enough structure to age gracefully. For lovers of powerhouse reds with espresso and dark chocolate complexity.

Red and black fruits like cassis,currant and cherry but with lots of spices and a hint of tobbac on the nose, fruity and spicy on the palate, very balanced with a nice long finish. I do not think is a cabernet sauvingnon as the app says, I think it is a cab based red blend maybe a Bordeaux blend

With transparency. Chocolate like, but spicy. Matured or liquor like. 8.75. But next day, alcohol flavor was gone and turned to deep concentrated. Aroma is calm. 2014 @800, Medoc - XH, 200227-200302

2010 full body, a little spicy. Bought at Mitsukoshi for ¥3,000.
