Don Maximiano Founder's Reserve 2018 Vintage Overview

2018 OVERVIEW

Perfumed notes of dark berries, plum, rose and a cool hint of mint glide through Errazuriz Don Maximiano Founder's Reserve 2018, which feels both vivid and composed, with sleek, fine-grained tannins and a long, energetic finish. The vintage comes across as especially poised and detailed, the oak beautifully tucked in behind the pure fruit and gentle savory tones.

About Don Maximiano Founder's Reserve

Don Maximiano Founder’s Reserve is Errázuriz’s flagship Aconcagua Valley red, a Cabernet Sauvignon–based Bordeaux-style blend that captures the estate’s warm, sun-bathed slopes tempered by cool Pacific breezes. Typically aged for almost two years in French oak, it is known for its polished structure, fine-grained tannins and vivid freshness framing layered cassis, dark plum and violet tones. Long celebrated as one of Chile’s benchmark icon wines, it aims for elegance and longevity rather than sheer power.
