Almaviva - Puento Alto 2022

Almaviva, deux cultures, un grand vin

En 1997, la baronne Philippine de Rothschild, présidente du conseil de surveillance de Baron Philippe de Rothschild S.A., et Don Eduardo Guilisasti Tagle, président de Viña Concha y Toro S.A., ont scellé une alliance profonde, en vue de créer un grand vin franco-chilien exceptionnel appelé Almaviva.

Issu d'un assemblage de cépages bordelais classiques, Almaviva est né d’une rencontre entre deux cultures. Le Chili apporte sa nature, son sol, son climat et ses vignes, tandis que la France apporte son savoir-faire, son élégance et ses traditions en matière de vinification.

Le Millésime 2022:

The Drink Business

par Colin Hay le 02/09/2024

Almaviva 2022 (Maipo Valley; 72% Cabernet Sauvignon, 23% Carménère, 4% Cabernet Franc; 1% Petit Verdot; 15% alcohol). Fascinating and distinctive aromatically, all the more so as it’s a little timid at first. A baked earth path, sun on sand, deep dark berry fruits – mulberries and brambles – and then dark stone fruits – damson and black cherry. Crushed black and red peppercorns and a hint of nutmeg. A massive attack of great intensity, depth and concentration, accentuated by the quite narrow frame, with the staunchly Cabernet tannins really grabbing the fruit from the moment this hits the tongue, pulling and massaging it back to the spine and releasing little plumes of juicy freshness like ripples as they do so. Quite sunny in feel (‘solaire’ as the French would say) and spicier than the 2021, this is a real vin de garde. Very impressive once again.

The 2022 Almaviva leads with a brooding, woody nose with savory, roasted pepper aromas and pleasing top notes of lavender and dried herbs. The palate is dense, luscious and staining, with considerable concentration and opulence. The finish continues this lush, layered opulence, concluding with supple, firm, unyielding tannins, welcomely braced with fresh acidity and herbal, methol-tinged flourishes. Despite its immediate richness, this is quite wound up, and it will take a few years to integrate its formidable tannins further. But it should be a joy to watch develop over the coming decade and beyond. It's a blend of 72% Cabernet Sauvignon, 23% Carménère, 4% Cabernet Franc and 1% Petit Verdot aged for 20 months in 70% new French oak.

Vinous

par Joaquin Hidalgo le 01/05/2024

Made from grapes grown in Puente Alto, Maipo Valley, the 2022 Almaviva belongs to the select group of iconic wines from the region. In recent years, Almaviva has been refining its vineyards to ensure their longevity, a process reflected in the 2022 vintage. The impact of drought and concentration is evident in this blend of 72% Cabernet Sauvignon, 23% Carménère, 4% Cabernet Franc and 1% Petit Verdot, aged for 20 months in French oak barrels (70% new). Deep purple in color, the 2022 offers ripe aromas of cassis and blackberry, with notes of menthol and cedar. Indulgent, with a plush and well-structured palate, it leaves a long, mature finish with lingering wood tones. A powerful and energetic red, this is quite rich and concentrated.

N°52 TOP 100 JS

What fabulous perfumed aromas of lavender, blackcurrants, graphite, tapenade and hints of sweet tobacco. So complex and sophisticated. Medium- to full-bodied with tannins that have an incredible finesse and length. It goes on for minutes. It’s all about elegance and class. There’s harmony and freshness for a dry year. Seductive and so long. 72% cabernet sauvignon, 23% carmenere, 4% cabernet franc and 1% petit verdot. Drinkable now, but one for the cellar. Drink from 2028.
