Description

EPU, the name of Almaviva's second wine, means "two" in the language of the Mapuche, one of the main indigenous cultures of southern Chile. Th¬e symbol is a reference to the Tupu, an ornament which expresses fundamental aspects of the worldview of various ancient Andean civilisations.

EPU comes from the same exceptional vines and terroir of Almaviva, Puento Alto, one of the coolest areas of Chile's Maipo Valley that offers the perfect conditions for growing Cabernet Sauvignon which is the heart of the blend. Modelled on the second wines of the most prestigious Bordeaux châteaux and produced in very limited quantities, EPU shares many characteristics of Almaviva, nonetheless, expressed through its own personality.

Having forged its own personality along the years, Cabernet Sauvignon is predominant in EPU at more than 80% of the blend, while its proportion in Almaviva is closer to 70%, conferring the wine a different identity that is less creamy with more verticality than Almaviva.

EPU 2019, the first international release of EPU, is the perfect introduction to the exclusive world of Almaviva.

Dégustation

Le nez est séduisant, vibrant et fruité, avec des arômes de framboise sauvage et de cassis, associés à des notes subtiles d'épices et de feuilles de thé.

En bouche, l'attaque est ronde et agréable ; joliment équilibré entre tension et maturité, densité et finesse, le vin présente des tanins doux et polis. La prédominance du Cabernet Sauvignon révèle la pure expression du terroir de Puente Alto, avec un fruit intense, frais et distinctif de cassis et de baies.

Un vin élégant, harmonieux et jeune, avec des notes persistantes de vanille et de baies rouges tout au long de sa longue finale savoureuse.
