VIGNO, Vino with the G from Carignan, is the name of our new wine based on Carignan, Syrah and Chardonnay. It forms part of the Vignadores de Carignan grouping, constituted as an Appellation of the Dry Interior of the Maule, to reclaim the heritage of its ancient vines and traditions, the main variety being Carignan. this wine is a blend of three different grape varieties all from the same vineyard, with sixty-year-old vines distributed in different soils, at different altitudes and with different sun exposure. This, together with 26 months of ageing in new American Oak casks, makes the blend extra-vigorous and fruity with a lasting youthfulness.
