- Vineyard Notes
-
Temperatures are lower near the Andes due to the cold air from the mountains, and the area closer to the Coastal Range has less daily temperature oscillation due to the maritime influence. Grapes from a selection of vineyards on silty soils with excellent drainage at the foot of the Andes Mountains are carefully combined with those from vineyards located in an area near the Coastal Mountains where the soils are heavier and have a combination of silt and clay.
Read more
- Winemaking
-
The grapes were handpicked during the month of April. They were destemmed, crushed and cold macerated during 5 days for color extaction and fermented at 24°-28 °C (75°-82°F), 10% oak was used during fermentation to help set the color and stabilize the wines.
Read more
- Ageing
-
Once the alcoholic fermentation was completed, 20% of the wine was aged in French oak for 3 months to lend sweetness and increase complexity.
Awards

2021 Vintage
Tasted: Jan 2023
This is a tremendous blend of some 5 million liters of cabernet sauvignon, mostly from Alto Jahuel, but also from areas in Colchagua, such as Palmilla and Pumanque. The result is a simple, entry-level, very fruit-focused cabernet. It's silky, fruity, and ready to drink by the liter during summer barbecues.
2020 Vintage
Tasted: Apr 2022
Leafy berry aromas feed into a juicy and raw palate that's narrow in scope. Generic black-fruit flavors are slightly green, while this Cabernet finishes tough but fair. Michael Schachner
2020 Vintage
Tasted: Jan 2022
With oaky touches (it was fermented with staves), this is juicy, simple, and ready to drink with lunch.
2019 Vintage
Tasted: Nov 2021
Hard spice, oaky clove, milk chocolate and lastly a hint of punchy berry fruit scents fill out the nose on this creamy Cab Sauvignon. Milk chocolate, green tobacco and salty berry flavors evaporate quickly on a mostly hollow finish. Michael Schachner
2018 Vintage
Tasted: Sep 2020
Rubberized berry aromas are dark and spicy, and a touch rough. A grabby palate is on the full side, while flavors of clove and vanilla stemming from forced oak come alongside ripe berry notes. Prune flavors and resiny oak control the finish. Michael Schachner
2017 Vintage
Tasted: Nov 2019
From head to toe there's nothing special about this so-called Reserva Especial. The nose smells of clove and not of fruit, while the palate is edgy, raw and gravelly. Flavors of mint gumdrop and clove are, like the nose, devoid of fruit. A raw, gritty finish is no savior. Michael Schachner
2017 Vintage
Tasted: Jan 2019
Simple and ripe with sweet red fruit and spicy tones. The palate is very smooth and enlivened by a touch of acidity.
2014 Vintage
Tasted: Jul 2017
Dry, scratchy plum and raspberry aromas come before an energetic palate. Loud berry and plum flavors run quick and bright, finishing with candy-like cherry flavors and wham-bam acidity.
2015 Vintage
Tasted: Feb 2017
Dunkles Rubingranat, violette Reflexe, dezente Randaufhellung. Zart tabakig unterlegte dunkle Beerenfrucht, Nuancen von Cassis, angenehme Gewürznote, Orangenzesten. Saftig, reife Herzkirschen, integrierte Tannine, feine Fruchtsüße im Abgang, bereits gut entwickelt.
2016 Vintage
Tasted: Jan 2017
Creamy aromas of milk chocolate and berry fruits set up a moderately gripping palate. Nonspecific berry and clove flavors finish plump and chewy, with a strong oak character on the close.
2010 Vintage
Tasted: Jan 2011
Hickory and clove scents dominate at first, but these aromas are forced and seem artificial. The palate is medium-bodied, with good layering and texture for $8 Cab and then woody, dark flavors of baked berry and burnt toast. Clove reappears on the finish.
2008 Vintage
Tasted: Jan 2010
This value-priced wine struts like it comes from a better neighborhood. The nose is clean and is centered on berry fruit, while the palate is medium in size, with creamy, sweet berry flavors. Mildly medicinal and candied, but good overall.
2008 Vintage
Tasted: Jan 2010
(2010) Central Valley. A nice touch of herbaceous character here, a touch of leather and baked plum too. The palate has lots of juicy blackcurrant, that cassis and cherry skin tart edge very nice, and a fairly soft finish with smoothed-out tannins and good acidity. Tasty and drinkable this.
2007 Vintage
Tasted: Jan 2009
Given that this wine is the definition of mass-market Cab (350,000 cases made), you have to be impressed by its honest, round character and relatively true aromas and flavors. The nose is meaty and a little flat, while the palate has cassis, berry and mild herbal flavors. The feel has some chop to it, but overall this is good Cabernet at a price anyone can swallow.
2006 Vintage
Tasted: Jan 2008
Dark to the eye, with perfectly adequate raspberry and black plum aromas. The palate is a touch acidic and tangy, but even though it's lean it packs ample cassis, plum and herbal influences. Solid for the money, with a feel-good personality.
2005 Vintage
Tasted: Jan 2007
This perennial Best Buy shines in 2005. It's clean, inviting and ready to go as piercing cherry, plum and cola flavors make a stand. Flush, warm and fairly full-bodied, 120 is one of those bargain lines that satisfies. More than 300,000 cases made, so it's good stuff made on a grand scale.
2002 Vintage
Tasted: Jan 2004
A decent mouthfeel and grippy tannins secures the palate, which doesn't really have the flavor profile of a fine wine. A sip reveals pickle, bell pepper, and rhubarb along with chocolate and some weedy, sugar beet notes. The texture isn't weak, but it's undeniably thin.
1999 Vintage
Tasted: Jan 2001
Very light berry and mint aromas open this austere, dry Cabernet. The fruit is dark, but needs more depth and profile to carry the woody presence here.

Rate Santa Rita 120 Reserva Especial Cabernet Sauvignon
Excellent
Saved: 4-Feb-2023
Excellent red wine for my palate. Many red wines are a bit too thick for me, so I usually drink them with a good size dinner. I don't drink wine as a cocktail. Often, I go to light sparkly rose/white chardonnay wines. 120 Cabernet Sauvignon Santa Rita is just perfect for my taste!

풍부한 과일향이 매력적. 완숙한 붉은 과일, 정향, 바닐라 향이 압도적으로 느껴짐. 과일맛, 탄닌맛, 엷은 감미가 벨런스를 이룬 미디움 바디의 와인.

Very fruity and smooth vine, I recommend when you are alone and you can't open a big bottle. I have consumed this in Marriott JW Shenzhen, perfect selection for the minibar.
