Don Maximiano Founder's Reserve 2017, Aconcagua Valley Bottle
Don Maximiano Founder's Reserve 2017, Aconcagua Valley
Aconcagua Valley, Chile
$96.00

Bordeaux roots but the Chilean DNA on the nose with medium plus aromas of chili, bell pepper, lots of perfume, raspberry, and cassis.

A complex nose for sure. Deep ruby colour with medium flavours of red plum, blackberry, bell pepper, tobacco, blackcurrant, and minerals. Medium dry chalk tannins that settle after two hours.- Nov 2023

Medium-intensity aromas of tobacco, balsamic, and oak. The aromas translated to the tongue with some mushrooms and beautiful dried fruit that lingered for a long time. It's light almost watery but the sweet and savory flavors take your complete attention away from that. Lovely wine.

Well, here we have an excellent value wine.

Petroleum aromas, butter, and tropical fruits. The petrol overwhelms the other notes.

The palate is beautiful honey, cream, petrol, tropical fruits, cantaloupe, and soft citrus end. 18g/L sugar, what sugar, its deceptive, welcoming, and dangerous just like the quenching acidity. This will age beautifully

Tasted July 2

The wine had a delightful aroma of white flowers, melon, grapefruit, and seashells. Upon tasting it, I could detect the flavours of melon, peach, lime, and salt. It tasted like I had swallowed a mouthful of ocean water. The finish was long and satisfying.-April 2024

Garnet with some bricking on the rim. Medium-intensity aromas of cherry, dried flowers, parmesan cheese, cured meat, oak, dill, molasses, and perfume.

Soft wine with medium acidity, soft tannins, chalk in mid-palate, integrated oak, dried herbs, cherry, saline, perfume, balsamic, and cedar. Short finish and sometimes I was reminded of Bordeaux, this is a rioja I can always drink.

I went in expecting to be Bombarded by those Chilean and Carmenère (92%) trademarks but the 8% Petit Verdot balanced it out very well.

Lovely soft bell peppers on the nose along with red chilies, and violet. The bell pepper and chili also followed through on the tongue but were subtle just like the nose. Some raspberry, jam, blackberry, and cherry came along for the ride. Medium tannins, acidity, and finish. Lovely stuff

Popping aromas of raspberry, black cherry, perfume, dill, and a hint of leather. Flavours of cocoa, ripe black cherry, raspberry, and dried fig with a hint of sweet balsamic and menthol. It has a long finish with a hint of chalky tannins. -June 2024

Beautiful dried cherry smell along with prune and oak. Taste of oak, balsamic, dried black fruits and herbs. Acidity is still there and the tannins have soften with a slight dry finish. Past prime which i would peg at two to three years ago
