The Wine The Wine
Chile
Region:Maipo Valley
The vineyard was planted with Syrah and Cabernet in 2005, realising a lifelong ambition for Perez Cruz winemaker Germán Lyon to make seriously small-production wines from vines planted in his backyard. For me, this can only be likened to growing some tomatoes and courgettes out of a couple of compost-filled buckets in my small garden. But, when you cook and serve them up, boy, do they taste good. This is a wonderfully balanced, black-fruited belter. Partner with game dishes for a superb food match.
The Winemaker The Winemaker
Germán Lyon
Viña Perez Cruz is a multi-award-winning winery, receiving rave reviews from customers and wine writers alike. Their immaculate vineyards can be found in the Maipo Valley, long regarded as Chile's premium red-grape-producing region. Their vines are planted on a variety of soil types that imbue the grapes with distinct flavour characteristics. Winemaker Germán Lyon firmly believes that every bottle of wine produced carefully reflects the 'terroir' of Maipo Valley.
"The Lof Cabernet Sauvignon has a nose which characterises the Maipo Valley - ripe blackcurrants, blackberries and pepper surrounded by a herbal minty intensity. It is a medium-bodied Cab with wonderful freshness delivered by a cool vintage. The finish is long and earthy with light mineral notes and just a little cedar." - Germán Lyon, Winemaker.
