✨ Technical Specifications
Casa Silva's Cuvée Rosé is an innovative and refreshing expression of Chile's Central Valley, artfully blending the country's signature Carmenere with the structural elegance of Syrah. The Silva family, whose viticultural heritage in the region dates back to 1892, utilizes their pioneering research into Colchagua's micro-terroirs to craft this vibrant rosé. By harvesting the grapes early in the cool morning hours, they preserve the bright natural acidity and delicate aromatics of the fruit. The wine undergoes a brief cold maceration to achieve its delicate pale pink hue, followed by temperature-controlled fermentation in stainless steel tanks. This process captures the spicy, herbal nuances of Carmenere alongside the juicy red berry and floral notes of Syrah, resulting in a sophisticated, dry rosé that honors the family's deep Chilean roots.
🍾 About the Producer
With winemaking roots dating back to 1892 in the Colchagua Valley, Viña Casa Silva is one of Chile's most historic and distinguished family-owned wine estates, formally bottled under the family label by Mario Silva and his sons in 1997. Based at their ancestral estate in Angostura near San Fernando, the winery has emerged as a leader in Chilean viticultural innovation, spearheading landmark terroir research and pioneering extreme vineyards ranging from the cool coastal hills of Paredones to the glacial soils of Lago Ranco in Chilean Patagonia. Committed to sustainability, precision farming, and authentic varietal character, the estate produces an exceptional spectrum of expressive red, white, rosé, and sparkling wines. Casa Silva is universally acclaimed for defining modern Carmenère through benchmark bottlings like Microterroir, its flagship blend Altura, and crystalline cool-climate Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir.
