✨ Technical Specifications
The Santa Digna range by Miguel Torres Chile pays homage to the historic stone crosses, or 'Santas Dignas', that traditionally marked the boundaries of Chilean estates, symbolizing protection and safe passage for travelers. As pioneers who arrived in the Central Valley in 1979, the Torres family revolutionized the Chilean wine industry by introducing modern stainless steel fermentation and temperature control. This Reserva Cabernet Sauvignon is sourced from prime vineyards in the Central Valley, benefiting from the dramatic diurnal temperature shifts created by the Andes Mountains. The wine undergoes traditional fermentation followed by aging in French oak barrels for approximately six months, resulting in a classic expression that balances vibrant blackcurrant and blackberry fruit with subtle notes of leather, toast, and structured tannins.
