A structured and balanced wine, a good representative of a Los Vascos Cabernet Sauvignon.
Ruby colored with garnet trim. The nose is intense, with red fruits such as cherries and plums, accompanied by cassis. Along with these fruits appear spicy notes of clove and cinnamon complemented by a background of well-integrated wood and graphite notes. The palate is intense, with a pleasant volume and acidity. It has characterful but elegant tannins that give it presence and vitality.
Vinous: 92 Points
The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Cromas also contains 10% Syrah and 5% Carmenere from Peralillo, Colchagua, and was four-fifths aged in 30% new oak. Rich garnet in color. The nose offers cigar box and black currant plus hints of ash, dark fruit, and balsamic flavors. Fluid and full-flavored, this is juicy in the mouth, with firm, fine-grained tannins. A well-made commercial wine.
James Suckling: 91 Points
Some baked cherries, black pepper and dark spices. A full-bodied and rich cabernet with lots of cassis on the palate. Ripe, tannic and slightly chewy. Give it a year to let the tannin round off. Drink in 2024.
Wine Spectator: 90 Points
This red offers an inviting perfumed entry, with notes of tea leaf and red currant joining on the palate and shades of slate and green herbs folding in on the finish.
Wine Enthusiast: 90 Points
Spicy berry and plum aromas are easy to process and easy to like. A fresh and healthy palate has lift to its step, while this tastes of saucy, savory berry fruits that show earthy complexity as this unfolds. A spicy, solid finish confirms quality.
