Errazuriz Don Maximiano Founder's Reserve 2015
Winemaker's Notes:
The 2015 Don Maximiano Founder's Reserve is a Cabernet Sauvignon-based blend with 15% Carménère, 8% Malbec, 7% Petit Verdot and 3% Cabernet Franc from Panquehue. It fermented in small stainless steel vats and matured in French oak barrels (68% new) for 22 months, including malolactic. This has to be the most elegant version of this cuvée that I tasted, with even a lighter structure than the cooler 2014, and there's also a little more acidity. The texture is seamless, and the balance between fruit, tannins and acidity is superb. This is a superb Bordeaux blend. 71,350 bottles were filled in February 2017.Wine Advocate 93+pts

Member Reviews for Errazuriz Don Maximiano Founder's Reserve
Add your reviewThe 2015 Errazuriz Don Maximiano (mostly Cabernet Sauvignon, but with other Bordeaux varieties) presents with the deepest carmine colour, shining iridescently in the glass. The nose is dominated by acidic wild fruit such as wild, low shrub blueberry with a bit of cedar shank (as if presented on such a wood). Vanilla, mild tannin, cassis and blueberry invade the taste buds with old world elegance. Smooth, delicate and noble, this wine is one of the best from the antipodes to greet my lips. Long, cassis-blackberry finish with 5-7 years (at least) left for cellaring. A wine of pedigree. 4.5 cups (93)
External Reviews for Errazuriz Don Maximiano Founder's Reserve

Dichtes Purpur. Feingliedriges Heidelbeeren- und Eukalyptusbouquet, intensiv und recht tiefgründig, Pfeffer und wilder Rosmarin. Seidiger und wunderschön reifer Gaumen. Im Finale marmeladige Brombeernoten, Schokolade und Minze, klingt elegant und lange aus.

Sehr intensives Rubinrot, fast purpurn. Enorm einladende, hervorragend parfümierte Nase nach Cassis und Brombeeren, im Verbund mit Schokoladensoufflée und Mokka, auch eine Spur Eucalyptus. Voluminös im Gaumen, von konzentrierter, schwarzbeeriger Frucht, nun auch Heidelbeeren und getrocknete Feigen, etwas Zedernholz; die angenehme Säure verleiht ihm Frische und balanciert die Struktur gut aus, toller Fruchtdruck bis ins enorm lange, von viel Eleganz geprägte Finale.
