✨ Technical Specifications
Hailing from the fertile soils of Chile's Central Valley, Las Mulas Cabernet Sauvignon is a tribute to the hard-working mules that historically helped traverse the rugged Andean terrain and cultivate the land. Crafted by Miguel Torres Chile, this wine represents the family's deep commitment to organic viticulture and environmental stewardship. The grapes are grown in certified organic vineyards, where the combination of warm, sunny days and cool night breezes blowing down from the Andes helps preserve the natural acidity and bright fruit character of the Cabernet Sauvignon. Fermented in stainless steel to retain its vibrant varietal purity, a portion of the wine is aged in French oak to add subtle structure and complexity, resulting in a smooth, fruit-forward red with notes of red berries, spices, and a touch of leather.
🍾 About the Producer
Established in 1870 by brothers Jaime and Miguel Torres Vendrell, Familia Torres stands as one of Spain's most historically influential and forward-thinking wine dynasties. Spanning prime estates across Catalonia (Penedès, Conca de Barberà, Priorat, and Costers del Segre) as well as Rías Baixas and Ribera del Duero, the house negotiates a mosaic of terroirs—from maritime granitic soils in Galicia to high-elevation calcareous clay and slate in northeastern Spain. Viticulturally celebrated for pioneering the Torres & Earth climate program, co-founding International Wineries for Climate Action (IWCA), and advancing regenerative farming, the estate also champions the revival of pre-phylloxera ancestral varieties like Forcada. Vinification balances precise temperature control, native yeasts, and specialized aging vessels ranging from granite vats to traditional oak casks. Benchmarks such as Pazo Torre Penelas Blanco Granito, Sons de Prades, Forcada, and Esplendor Vardon Kennett reflect an unwavering commitment to site specificity, structural clarity, and sustainable viticultural excellence.
