Tasting Notes

Aromatic and layered, showing ripe black and red fruit tones with savory accents that build in complexity. Concentrated yet fresh, it carries depth and structure through a very long finish.

Food Paring

Pair with duck à l’orange or rack of lamb to complement the wine’s richness and savory spice. For a decadent match, serve alongside dark chocolate with high cacao content at the end of the meal.

Professional Reviews

100 James Suckling

"Extremely aromatic with red currants, blackcurrants, spices, iodine, paprika and subtle hints of white pepper. Fresh flowers, fresh sage, lavender and some pine needles and sandalwood. Medium-bodied with perfectly integrated tannins that go on for minutes with refined and harmonious fruit that integrates beautifully into the wine, giving it a weightless structure that shows class and verve. Endless balance and length. It’s so balanced that you could drink it now but it will age for decades."

Region Information

Valle Central is Chile’s most important wine‑producing region, extending across a broad area with varied subregions. Mediterranean climate conditions, cooling influences from the Andes and Pacific Ocean, and fertile valleys make it ideal for a wide range of grape varieties. Valle Central wines are known for ripe fruit character, balance, and consistent quality.

Chile’s unique geography, bordered by mountains, ocean, and desert, helps protect its vineyards from disease. The country produces reliable, high-quality wines with excellent value. Cabernet Sauvignon, Carmenère, and Sauvignon Blanc are key varieties. Chilean winemaking balances consistency, innovation, and strong export markets.
