Deep and earthy, with aromatic hints of forest, toast and nicely baked fruit. Shows good body and balance, with cherry and raspberry flavors. Seems healthy and upright, with some acidity on the finish that offers boost. Clean and well built. Imported by Undurraga USA.——M.S.(5/1/2006)—— 87

With a vegetal note, some cocoa and berry on the nose and its simple, rather flat flavor profile, this Cabernet suffers from both vintage deficiencies and over-oaking. Dry and woody on the back end.——M.M.(2/1/2001)—— 82

What's not to like? Very harmonious Cabernet. It's nicely balanced, well-rounded in texture, showing ample currant and cherry flavors and spicy oak accents. Drink now.??–null??Region: Chile / Central Valley-Chile / Maipo / Maipo Valley Select to Add

Its bright fruit and good balance give it solid appeal; its herb and spice overtones and firm underlying tannins give it character. Well crafted. Drink now through 1998. 2,100 cases made.??–null??Region: Chile / Central Valley-Chile / Maipo / Maipo Valley Select to Add

The excellent 1989 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve is even better than the 1993 Sauvignon Blanc and the 1993 Chardonnay Estate Santa Ana. Made from Undurraga's estate vineyards, it is their flagship Cabernet Sauvignon. While it exhibits a generous use of toasty new oak, the wood is well-integrated with the ripe, cedary, cassis fruit. The wine is supple, medium to full-bodied, expansive on the palate, and a delicious example of what Chilean Cabernet Sauvignon can achieve when yields are not preposterously high. It should drink well for 2-3 years. Importer: Kobrand, Inc., New York, NY.
