Rather Chile has recognised the challenge of the Cabernet varieties and the unusually high diurnal range of the terroirs and continues to refine the vineyard management with preveraison leaf stripping and other treatments, creating some of the world’s most unique and distinctive Cabernets with subliminal briarines and evolved savoury tannins. I also included warmer Australian regions (Barossa and McLaren Vale) as producing Cabernets with less varietal distinction than Chile’s Central Valley not just Napa. BJC.
