- Villa Don Maximiano is the second wine of Don Maximiano Founder’s Reserve, inspired by the villa built by the founder in the Aconcagua Valley in 1870. A reflection of years of learning, it is a blend made from Bordeaux and Mediterranean varieties, with a contemporary personality and character, and excellent aging potential.
“The 2019 vintage of Villa Don Maximiano has a deep ruby-red color with a violet hue. The first impression on the nose is a floral note recalling violets with a light touch of lavender as well as abundant fresh red fruits such as cherries, pomegranates, and strawberries. The flavors are consistent with the aromas perceived on the nose, although a light note of sweet spices, such as cloves and nutmeg, appears on the finish. Excellent firm and fine-grained tannins appear on the juicy palate with a degree of tension that provides linearity and persistence.”

Winery | Aging: 22 months in French oak barrels, 50% new, and 30% in Stockinger foudres.Our MAX vineyards benefitted from the age of the vines and a precision irrigation system, which allowed us to withstand a particularly dry year. Fortunately, the heatwave that affected Chile’s Central Valley was not as harsh in the Aconcagua Valley, which favored the fruit and delivered smooth and ripe tannins, enabling us to produce complex and elegant wines that are well defined in their varietal profile. |
