Andes Cabernet Sauvignon 12,5% 3 l BIB

The Andes Cabernet Sauvignon is a Chilean red wine that puts the classic personality of Cabernet Sauvignon front and center. With an alcohol level of 12.5%, it presents a balanced expression of ripe dark fruits and a lively structural backbone typical of the variety. This wine offers straightforward, food-friendly appeal that suits relaxed dinners and everyday enjoyment. On the nose you can expect notes that evoke blackcurrant, dark cherry and subtle herbaceous hints, a profile that often defines Cabernet Sauvignon from cool to moderate climates. The aroma invites you in with fruit clarity rather than overwhelming oak or heavy spice, making it approachable from the first sip. In the mouth the wine tends toward a firm but accessible structure, framed by moderate tannins and refreshing acidity. Flavors of dark berries mingle with faint savory undertones, creating a palate that feels balanced and steady through to the finish. This Chilean Cabernet Sauvignon is versatile at the table and adaptable across simple to slightly more structured dishes. It is a dependable choice when you want a red wine that is familiar in style yet expressive enough to carry through a range of meals. Tasting notes Appearance: the wine typically shows a deep ruby to garnet hue, reflecting ripe red and black fruit character without excessive density. Aroma: expect concentrated notes of blackcurrant and plum with light herbal or green-pepper nuances that add complexity and lift. Palate: the flavor profile centers on ripe dark fruits balanced by moderate tannic grip and a pleasant acidity that keeps the wine lively on the tongue. Finish and balance: flavors tend to linger with a clean, slightly savory finish. The structure is focused enough to provide shape while remaining easy to enjoy across several sips. Food pairings and serving suggestions This Cabernet Sauvignon pairs naturally with grilled or roasted red meats, where the wine’s tannins and dark fruit complement beef and lamb preparations. Tomato-based pastas, rustic stews and dishes with roasted root vegetables also find a good companion in this wine, as the acidity helps cut through richer sauces. For cheese, choose medium- to hard-textured varieties such as aged Manchego, cheddar or a nutty alpine-style cheese; the combination highlights both the fruit and the savory elements of the wine. Serve slightly below room temperature, around 16–18°C. If desired, allow the wine to breathe for a short while before pouring to open the aromas and soften the tannins for immediate enjoyment.
