Hailing from Chile's Central Valley, the Santa Digna Cabernet Sauvignon Rosé is a testament to the pioneering spirit of Miguel Torres, who arrived in Chile in 1979 and revolutionized the country's winemaking landscape. The 'Santa Digna' name pays homage to the historic stone crosses that once marked the boundaries of Chilean estates, serving as symbols of protection and safe passage for travelers. Crafted from Cabernet Sauvignon, this rosé showcases the grape's vibrant side through a brief period of skin contact to extract its brilliant ruby-pink hue, followed by fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. This preservation-focused method captures the intense, fresh aromas of wild berries and blackcurrant, balanced by a refreshing, juicy acidity that reflects the cool evening breezes of the Chilean valleys.
