Antiguas Reservas Cousiño-Macul 1995
The 1995 Antiguas Reservas is an estate-bottled red wine produced by Cousiño-Macul, recognized as Chile's oldest family-owned estate. Classified as a Gran Vino, this wine originates from the Maipo Valley, located near Santiago.
Founded in the mid-1800s and planted with French grape varieties, the Maipo Valley is considered Chile's oldest and most classic wine region. The warm valley and the slopes of the Andes Mountains provide an ideal environment for viticulture.
This wine is made exclusively from Cabernet Sauvignon, one of the world's most renowned blue grapes for producing structured red wines. While this variety is frequently cultivated in prominent areas such as Bordeaux, California, Washington, and Tuscany, this specific Chilean expression is crafted from grapes grown on pre-phylloxera vines. The wine is bottled directly at the Viña Cousiño-Macul estate and contains 12% alcohol by volume.
