Viña Tarapacá Gran Reserva Cabernet Sauvignon 2013, Maipo Valley, Chile: Terrific bold red wine from Chile's Maipo Valley. This wine is made from diverse blocks of Cabernet Sauvignon grapes within the Maipo Valley. The wine was aged for 12 months in French oak barrels. A savoury and juicy Chilean cabernet sauvignon with aromas of fleshy black plums and blackberries. A full-bodied red wine that's smooth and eminently gulpable. Dark red in the glass, mouth-filling in the palate. Finishes with smoke and spice. Great depth and length in the glass and on the palate. Polished tannins and a good finish. Great with pizza or gourmet hamburgers. Drink: 2016-2019. 18721 14% XD 750 mL  $17.95 Score: 91/100. May 15, 2017 Best Value Red Wine. Magnificent Meat Pizza Wine Full Review
