Additional Information

Enclave is deep, dark red in colour. The nose reveals red fruit such as plums and cherries, a touch of cassis, white pepper, damp earth and a hint of black fruit. It has an intriguing aromatic complexity. Elegant and well-structured on the palate with firm, yet silky tannins. Persistent in the finish. This blend has layers of flavours. The firm tannins of Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot intermingle with the softness and complexity of Carménère and the elegance of Cabernet Franc. Its blend means that Enclave can be cellared for 10 to 15 years. Blend: 85% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Petit verdot, 5% Carmenere, 2% Cabernet Franc

Tasting Notes

Critical Acclaim

WS93 - Wine & Spirits
From Pirque, one of the highest areas in the Maipo Valley, this wine shows all the best qualities of Andean cabernet with a crystal-clear transparency. It’s soft and gentle, the acidity and tannins weaving a fine structural network to carry the earthy, eucalyptus-scented fruit. It’s a classic example that captures the freshness of the Andean snow-capped peaks even in a warm vintage like 2012.

V93 - Vinous
Bright violet. Potent, mineral-laced dark berry, cherry and licorice aromas are complemented by hints of cola, mocha and candied flowers. Fleshy and appealingly sweet, offering concentrated black currant, cherry-vanilla and rose pastille flavors underscored by a jolt of smoky minerality. Displays excellent depth, balance and lift and shows impressive focus on the persistent finish, which is framed by smooth, harmonious tannins.

WE92 - Wine Enthusiast
Earthy aromas include herbal notes, a hint of tomato sauce, asphalt and dusty berry fruits. This has a raw tannic exterior but is softer in the middle. Flavors of saucy, herbal plum and blackberry come with notes of tobacco and olive, while this is drawing and gritty on the finish, with a roasted quality. Drink through 2024.

JS92 - James Suckling
Clear and beautiful aromas with crushed blackberry, blueberry and mineral character. Full body, chewy tannins, and structured. Shows tannin and fruit tension. A little austere, but it will come around with bottle age. Made with John Duval of Australia. A blend of cabernet sauvignon, carmenere, petit verdot, and cabernet franc made in Pirque in Valle de Maipo
