Lacaze Cachapoal Cabernet 2016
About the wine
Old world meets new in this delectably drinkable Cabernet
- Trained in Bordeaux, JP Lacaze certainly knows how to craft a Cabernet. Hand selecting top quality fruit from his favourite vineyards he has created a cheeky and gulpable tipple just for you.
- Bursting with juicy red berries, plump dark fruit and a touch of subtle spice, this wine is smooth and dangerously drinkable. Crack this open any day of the week and enjoy the easy elegance of this wine.
- Everything you need to set you up for the evening, and it gets even better if throw some grilled lamb with warming, soft spices into the mix. A match made in Cabernet heaven.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Jean Pascal Lacaze
-
Born and trained in Bordeaux, Jean-Pascal now makes wines in Chile, where he’s become a winemaking legend. Every delicious drop he touches ends up dripping medals and critical acclaim.
-
Back in 2008 when his main client went bust, Angels stepped in to save his bacon, and his vintage. Ever since, he’s been making award-winning wines specially for UK Angels.

How good is his kit? Well, in his spare time he also makes one of Chile’s most famous wines – the iconic Domus Aurea Cabernet Sauvignon. It sells for £40 and scores 90+ Parker Points every vintage. That good.
