Max score: 100.0

Born the lovechild of Viña Concha y Toro and Baron Philippe de Rothschild, the Chilean powerhouse Almaviva, combines both the Rothschild spirit for creating spectacular clarets with the Maipo Valley’s sublime terroir. These wines truly are a must-have for lovers of claret looking for something slightly different.

Their 2017 was declared “wine of the decade” by James Suckling who awarded it a coveted 100 Points, whilst the 2018 received the praise of “one of Chile’s greatest reds” from Tim Atkin, who backed this up with a 98 Point score.

This full-bodied wine, comprises a Cabernet-based blend that is brimming with blackcurrant, spiced tobacco and herbal notes.

James Suckling

Blackcurrant, flower, lead-pencil, and iodine aromas. Medium to full body with firm, polished tannins. Very young and solid. Reserved now, yet if you dig down deep on the palate it shows so much. There’s so much beneath it all. Give it time. The incredible depth and structure is all there. It was our Wine of the Year in 2018. 69% cabernet sauvignon, 24% carmenere, 5% cabernet franc and 2% petit verdot. Try after 2025 or later.

Jane Anson

This latest release has 2% of Petit Verdot, adding a dash of dark pepper spice. Its a lovely wine, structured, intense but not tight, and beautifully balanced. There are some great liquorice and soft berry spice flavours, with notes of dark chocolate, cinnamon and sage. It has soft, smooth tannins which lend a supple texture to the wine. This gets better and better in the glass and has a freshness and grip that suggests great ageing potential.
