Santa Rita, Casa Real Reserva Especial Cabernet Sauvignon, 2020

Casa Real is the crown jewel from Vina Santa Rita - a pioneering estate in Maipo’s Alto Jahuel.

The Reserva Especial label only emerges from the estate’s most select plots: low yields, old vines, and a fanatical approach to Cabernet.

After harvest, the juice spends 24 months resting in French oak, then additional time in bottle before release. That oak treatment breeds structure, tannin finesse, and that cedar‑earth whisper people rave about.

In 2013, it was voted a “Wine Legend” by a major UK mag, and every vintage since gets hounded by critics.

This isn’t a hype‑train, it’s the result of decades of precision, terroir awareness, and a no‑compromise attitude. For anyone wanting the essence of Chilean Cabernet with old‑school class, this is the drop.
