✨ Technical Specifications
Crafted as an innovative expression of the Aconcagua Valley's diverse microclimates, this red blend from Viña Errázuriz represents a harmonious marriage of Bordeaux and Mediterranean grape varieties. Sourced from estate vineyards where the warm Chilean sun is cooled by Pacific breezes and alpine air from the Andes, the grapes undergo meticulous selection. The wine is aged in French oak barrels to develop a sophisticated structure, seamlessly weaving together the spicy, dark-fruit character of Syrah and Carmenere with the structural elegance of Cabernet Sauvignon. This blend captures the pioneering spirit of the estate, offering a rich tapestry of black fruit, cracked pepper, and refined tannins.
🍾 About the Producer
Established in 1870 by Don Maximiano Errázuriz, Viña Errázuriz is an architect of modern Chilean viticulture. Sited in the Aconcagua Valley, the estate traverses diverse mesoclimates, moving from warm, alluvial inland terraces framed by the Andes to cool-climate maritime slopes in Aconcagua Costa. Viticulture emphasizes precision farming certified under the Wines of Chile Sustainability Code. Errázuriz revolutionized Chile's global standing through the historic 2004 Berlin Tasting orchestrated by Eduardo Chadwick, alongside longtime Technical Director Francisco Baettig. While internationally revered for red icons, Errázuriz’s white wine program demonstrates profound terroir mastery, especially along the coastal schist soils of the Las Pizarras vineyard. Benchmark white expressions like Las Pizarras Chardonnay deliver striking mineral reduction, crystalline acidity, and tension, while the Max and Costa Sauvignon Blancs showcase vibrant, citrus-driven linear precision that highlights the estate's exceptional Pacific maritime influence.
