Experience is the key behind this iconic wine. Its elegance, balance and character are the result of a combination of traditional winemaking expertise with modern technology along with 18 months of aging in French oak barrels. The winemaking concept of this Maipo Valley’s wine comes from grapes which has been organically grown to protect the environment and to obtain concentrated flavours. The wine is produced using the traditional style of wine-making typical of Bordeaux, with aging in French barrels and in bottle. The style of this wine is elegant, balanced, complex, mature and robust, with aromas of flowers and forest fruits.
