WINE DESCRIPTION
Root 1 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserva is a premium wine produced by Root 1 Winery, a renowned producer of high-quality wines. The grapes used to make this wine are sourced from the Maipo Valley appellation in Chile, which is known for its ideal growing conditions for Cabernet Sauvignon. The vineyard features deep, rocky soils and a Mediterranean climate, which contribute to the wine's rich and complex flavors. The winemaking process involves careful selection of the grapes, followed by fermentation and aging in oak barrels. The resulting wine is full-bodied, with notes of blackberry, cassis, and vanilla, and a long, smooth finish.
