Product Notes

Cousiño Macul Finis Terrae Red Wine is a splendid Chilean blend, oozing with ripe, luscious berries and a hint of spice. It exhibits an inviting ruby hue, with the aroma of red fruits, chocolate, and vanilla teasing the senses. The palate is greeted with rich, complex flavours, boasting a perfect balance of acidity, tannins and silky textures. It finishes with lingering notes of oak and spice, creating a satisfying aftertaste. Aged expertly in French oak barrels, this red is a formidable companion to red meat or robust cheeses. An exquisite embodiment of Chile’s wine-making expertise.

Tasting Notes

This garnet-colored wine stands out on the nose for its touches of ripe black fruit, such as plum and cherry, continuing with red paprika, saline notes, leather and wood. On the palate it has a soft and sweet entry, with silky tannins and hints of tobacco. It has a medium acidity that provides freshness thanks to the Syrah it contains, and has a long and persistent finish.
