Andrea Shapiro rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

Big, fun and juicy! Beautiful deep ruby, inky and opaque. Aged in 100% French oak for 14 months prior to bottling. Aromas are profound featuring dark plum, black cherry, cooked strawberries, leather, mushrooms and rocky earth. Also a faint whisper of vanilla bean. Flavours are complex and evolve with; cassis, blackberry, earthy tobacco, cedar cigar box, dark chocolate and spicy red bell peppers. Medium plus acidity, with a full rich velvety body and tannins. Decadent and delicious. Ready to drink now, but can further age 5-7yrs. Enjoy in harmony with a juicy big steak, aged cheeses and sausages. 89 Points -tasted February 2018

Natalie's Review

MontGras Antu Cabernet Sauvignon 2015, Maipo Valley, Chile: Antu means Sun in the native Mapauche language. This wine is Montgras' exploratory range of wines, which experiments with both classic/traditional Chilean grapes and new varietals. A full-bodied, well-balanced Chilean Cabernet with aromas of blackberry, plum and cassis and toasty oak. Pair with grilled meats. Drink: 2017-2020. 444703 14.50% XD 750 mL  $19.95 Score: 88/100.

Unquenchable by Natalie MacLean

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

The Financial Times of London

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
