Ungrafted, Valle del Maipo Cabernet Sauvignon, 2023
The name says it all. Chile escaped phylloxera thanks to its geographic isolation (desert north, Andes east, Pacific west, Antarctica south), and many of its oldest Cabernet plantings still grow on their own roots, no grafting required. Ungrafted is the De Martino family's celebration of that fact: a Maipo Valley Cabernet sourced from scarce, ungrafted, 25-to-30-year-old vines planted in the gravel soils of the family's Santa Ines vineyard in Isla de Maipo. De Martino is a fourth-generation Chilean estate, founded in 1934 and now run by brothers Marco and Sebastian. The wine is built for everyday drinking: bold, fruit-driven, food-friendly, and a smart introduction to what makes Maipo Cab one of the great value plays in the Cabernet world.
