Reviews and Ratings

Jennifer Havers - WSET Level 3 rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

Primarily Cabernet Sauvignon (85%) but with small amounts of Petit Verdot (5%), Carmenere (5%), and Petit Syrah (5%). Aromas of blackberrym currant, graphite, warm baking spices and leather. Full bodied, smooth on the palate with some medium, well integrated tannins (not too overwhelming or drying), ripe blackberry and black fruit notes, and a balance of mineral, slightly spicy and smoky hints on the finish. Enjoy with any beef or mushroom dishes.
Christian Marcoux rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

An exemplary wine, from the Vina Echeverria in Chile, the Elementos 2017 offer aromas of blackberry, black cherry, dried herbs clay dust, baking spice, coffee and cedar. Harvested in the well known Maipo Valley, a blend of 85% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Petit Verdo, 5% Carmenere and 5% Petit Syrah give this wine softness and great balance. The finish is well defined and lengthy. Palate: strawberry, plum, bay leaf, graphite, mocha and cedar. Enjoy!
Elementos 2017 is a vegan-friendly Cabernet Sauvignon from the Maipo Valley. Look for blackberry, blueberry, minty, savoury herb and smoky vanilla flavours finishing long and smooth on the palate. - Community Wine Reviews
