Casa Silva's Cuvée Colchagua Viognier Reserva highlights the family's pioneering spirit in Chile's Colchagua Valley. While Colchagua is historically famous for its bold red wines, Casa Silva recognized the potential of its cooler microclimates, influenced by both the Andes Mountains and Pacific breezes, to cultivate aromatic white varieties. Sourced from estate vineyards, this Viognier is crafted to capture the grape's signature exotic profile. The grapes are carefully harvested and fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks to preserve the delicate floral aromas, vibrant acidity, and lush stone fruit characteristics without the heavy influence of oak, showcasing a pure expression of Colchagua's diverse terroir.

Established in 1997 by the Silva family, whose winemaking roots in Chile's Colchagua Valley date back to 1892, Viña Casa Silva is a pioneering estate headquartered at Hijuela Norte S/N, Angostura, San Fernando, O'Higgins, Chile. Under the leadership of Mario Pablo Silva, the winery has earned international acclaim for its rigorous terroir research, particularly its groundbreaking micro-terroir studies of Carmenere in the Los Lingues region. Casa Silva is also celebrated for pushing viticultural boundaries into extreme cool-climate territories, producing exceptional Sauvignon Blanc and Syrah from Paredones on the 'Cool Coast,' as well as pioneering Pinot Noir, Riesling, and Sauvignon Blanc from the remote Lago Ranco in Chile's southern Austral region.
