Tasting Notes
Errazuriz Max VIII shows an intense and deep ruby red colour with violet hues. On the nose it displays floral notes reminiscent of violets, then the red fruit appears, raspberry and pomegranate, all elegantly accompanied by soft notes of fine pastry and nuts.
The palate is balanced and juicy, with round and elegant tannins. It is lively and has tension, which predicts excellent ageing potential. Very long and persistent on the palate.
About
Chilean entrepreneur and politician Don Maximiano Errázuriz founded Viña Errázuriz in 1870, when he started growing the first wines in the Aconcagua valley. Today, Viña Errázuriz is a Chilean winery growing grapes not only in the Aconcagua, but also the Casablanca and Curicó valleys.
Viticulture: The grapes for MAX VIII come from a selection of the different vineyards in the Aconcagua Valley, where climatic conditions, soil, topography, exposure and height vary thanks to the transversal position of the valley in the Chilean geography. The climate goes from a cool climate, close to the coast (40 km) to a Mediterranean climate, more inland from the valley (70 km) thanks to the presence of the cool breezes from the Pacific Ocean that finally decreases at the foot of the Andes Mountains. The soils of the vineyards change their texture due to their different geological origins, in a range that goes from alluvial soils formed by deposits of the Aconcagua River, to colluvial soils originated from rocks from the slopes. The special conditions of nutrition and drainage of these different soils help to develop the varieties of this blend, producing balanced grapes for this wine.
Winemaking: Harvest Hand. Cold maceration at 8 -12 °C, 3 - 7 days in stainless steel tanks. Alcoholic Fermentation at 23 - 28¼C, 5 -10 days in
