Region

Wines of Chile continue the legacy of Spanish wine culture in the 'New World'. The rugged and wild landscapes, with the currents of the Pacific to one side and the Andean slopes to the other, allow excellent climatic conditions for the cultivation of varieties brought from the Old World: Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Sauvignon Blanc or Chardonnay which prosper with indigenous grapes like Carmenere.

Tasting Notes

Delicate on the nose, slightly spicy in the background with notes of black forest fruit and cherry.
In the mouth it shows a sensation of roundness and a certain warmth with a powerful finish on the palate, with firm tannins and notes of blackberries. Long and elegant finish.

Food Pairing

Ideal to pair with lean red meats, roasts, pasta, empanadas and pizzas. It harmonizes very well with chocolate sweets.
