This 2023 vintage offers a deep ruby color with vibrant purple hues. On the nose, it reveals intense aromas of ripe red fruits — think cherry and raspberry — complemented by subtle hints of vanilla and spice from its oak aging. The palate is smooth and velvety, with well-integrated tannins and a beautifully balanced acidity that leads to a long, satisfying finish.
Origin & Terroir
Sourced from the sun-drenched vineyards of Chile's Maipo Valley, this Merlot benefits from a unique microclimate. The cool nights and warm days allow the grapes to develop optimal ripeness while preserving their natural acidity. The soil, rich in clay and alluvial deposits, imparts structure and depth to the wine.
Food Pairing
Perfectly paired with red meats, lamb, or hearty pasta dishes. Also excellent with aged cheeses like Gouda or Manchego. Serve at 16-18°C (60-64°F) in a large Bordeaux glass to fully appreciate its complex bouquet.
