Pairing

Perfect accompaniment to game meats and spicy dishes and pastas.

Region

The grapes come from the Central Valley, one of Chile's main wine-growing areas. The weather is like the weather in the Mediterranean region, with hot, dry summers and short, mild winters. Because it is close to the sea, it is always damp and foggy in the morning. This means the grapes ripen slowly, and the wine is of a high quality.

Technical information

The wine is crafted from a meticulous selection of Malbec, Syrah and Carmenère grapes, harvested separately to optimise the varietal expression of each. The alcoholic fermentation process was conducted at a controlled temperature of 24°C, followed by a three-day post-fermentation maceration to extract the maximum aromatic and tannic compounds. Prior to malolactic fermentation, the base wines were blended in order to achieve optimal integration of the three varieties, resulting in a complex and balanced blend.
