Vina Almaviva 2022

99–100
/100

I den varme og tørre 2022-årgang består Almaviva af 72 procent Cabernet Sauvignon, 23 procent Carmenère, Cabernet Franc og Petit Verdot. Næsen er levende frugtagtig og samtidig fængslende intens. Bare det at dufte den i glasset er en absolut, ultrakompleks fornøjelse og indbegrebet af elegance! Solbær, kirsebær og saftige, koncentrerede hindbær fletter sig sammen med aromatiske lilla blomster. De krydrede smagsnuancer fra trælagringen er elegant sammenvævet. Et strejf af vanilje, kanel og cedertræ. I munden er tanninerne raffinerede og saftigt integrerede. Overdådige, silkebløde moreller, cassis og modne hindbær glider hen over tungen og bliver hængende i harmoni med krydderierne. Flagskibsvinen fra Concha y Toro, en af Chiles kultproducenter.

Suckling om: Vina Almaviva

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. 99/100

Colin Hay om: Vina Almaviva

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. - Colin Hay

Parker om: Vina Almaviva

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.

Jane Anson om: Vina Almaviva

Plush tannins balanced by pulses of acidity, this is sensational, with waves of olive paste, cassis, bilberry, smoked vanilla bean, cocoa dusted, set off by violet overtones on the aromatics. Will benefit from a few years in bottle, and will go the distance in terms of ageing potential. Harvest started March 21, three days earlier than 2021 but five days later than 2020, and ended on April 29 for Cabernet, with Carménère brought in between May 2 and 11, after a season with just 79mm of total rainfall. Rothschild & Concha Y Toro owners, 70% new oak for ageing. Michel Friou winemaker.
