This wine has improved over the past 5-7 years. This is a smooth and pleasant drinking red wine.
The Caliterra Cabernet Sauvignon is a good example of a high quality, budget red wine from Chile. For the 2000 vintage, 83% of the grapes were sourced from the Rapel Valley. The resulting wine is quite smooth with generous flavors of blackberries and raspberries with a slightly spicy finish. The tannins are soft but still give the wine sufficient structure to stand up to a variety of grilled meats including Steaks, Lamb Chops and Marinated Pork Chops. Like other easy drinking New World wines, this wine also matches well with Grilled Salmon or Tuna Steaks. Allow this wine to breath for 10-15 minutes and serve it slightly below room temperature, about 16℃.
Caliterra is a joint venture between Errazuriz and Robert Mondavi. The Eduardo Chadwick family originally created Caliterra in 1989 as a sister project to the family-owned Vina Errazuriz of Chile. In 1996, Robert Mondavi purchased 50% of Caliterra. The new money and expertise contributed by Modavi have resulted in significantly better wines.
