Errázuriz Max Reserva Cabernet Sauvignon 2012, Aconcagua Valley, Chile: Very attractive fleshy blackberry on the nose, which is fresh and enticing without any heavy oak present. Balanced and layered on the palate, with a full-bodied weight and richness, but again not ponderous. Long finish. Superb value. Drink: 2014-2017. 335174 14% XD 750 mL  $21.95 Score: 90/100.
