origin
D.O Maule Valley – Chile
Variety: 100% Cabernet Sauvignon
tasting notes:
This Cabernet Sauvignon from the Maule Valley, specifically from the Cauquenes area. The special conditions of this valley determine that the wine is more mature, structured and with an explosive finish. It has an intense ruby red color and presents fresh, fruity aromas such as black currants, ripe cherries as well as subtle notes of spice and chocolate. This is a well-balanced wine with expressive tanins, which enhance the complexity and the oak is perfectly integrated and doesn’t override the fruit. This wine pairs well with beef, game, lamb, prok and mature cheese.

The Carménère variety originated in Bordeaux, France, disappeared in the nineteenth century and has now been rediscovered in Chile. This wine is made from grapes from our vineyards in the Colchagua Valley. This wine has a deep violet-red colour. Exuberant aromas of black cherries, ripe plums, wild berries and blueberries mix with spicy notes, such as black pepper, rosemary, boldo and bay laurel. On The palate is soft, concentrated and complex, with a pleasant silkiness and notes of spice and fruit, and offers a delicate yet persistent finish.
