Product description

KOYLE CABERNET SAUVIGNON "ROYALE" - 2016 - CHILE

This extract-rich, high-quality Cabernet Sauvignon, blended according to the French model, shows a deep red colour. In addition to its good tannin structure, it has a concise fruit. Its complex aromas combine notes of herbs, red berries and cedar wood. Typical aromas that reflect the natural conditions of the Los Lingues region. The 18-month aging in French barriques gives this Cabernet Sauvignon from Chile a special quality and complexity. As a result, it is necessary to decant this wine at least 20 minutes before enjoying it.

The grapes for this high-quality Carmenere wine are cultivated using biodynamic cultivation methods in the Alto Colchagua region.

The 2016 vintage of Koyle Royale Cabernet Sauvignon shows a bright ruby red color with layers of creamy blackberry and blackcurrant fruit, cedar and sandalwood. On the palate it is fresh and balanced, the expression silky and juicy. This is a wine that showcases the natural environment that surrounds our grapes from Los Lingues vineyards. The 2016 vintage is Koyle's best vintage to date.

The grapes were picked in extremely small, selected plots (one plant per bottle) from high-density vines in Los Lingues vineyards, originating from soils with low fertility where the roots can bring out the unique freshness of the stones and minerals. The vineyards are carefully pruned to achieve balanced yields and to express the origin as well as possible. When they are perfectly ripe, the grapes are handpicked and taken to the wine cellar for careful sorting. The vinification takes place in small vats to obtain the best extraction of aromas, flavors and silky tannins. After fermentation, Koyle Royale Cabernet Sauvignon ages in French oak barrels without filtration for eighteen months.
