Castillo Quebrado
Maule Valley, Chile
A savory and lush, Gold Medal-winning Cabernet Sauvignon from the Maule Valley
ABOUT THIS WINE:

Castillo Quebrado
Cabernet Sauvignon
The Maule River, which runs east to west through the area from the ocean to the base of the Andes Mountains, moderates much of the typically intense sunshine that vines see during the day. The warm days are followed by cold nights, which lengthens the growing season and results in near-perfect ripeness and a beautifully balanced acidity. This stunning wine is a gorgeous reflection of the highly concentrated flavors that come out of the region. A blend of 85% Cabernet Sauvignon and 15% Merlot, this wine is made in a style that is part New World and part Old World. Full-bodied and deep in color, dark fruit flavors, herbaceous vegetal notes, and savory characteristics swirl together as you sip. Smooth tannins round out the back end of the palate.

WINE REGION:

Maule Valley
When it comes to well-balanced reds of great value, Chile's Maule Valley is hard to beat. The southernmost part of Chile's Central Valley, Maule is a large sub-region with many microclimates and soil types. The Maule River and the nearby Pacific Ocean both greatly influence its climate. Maule was one of the first places in Chile planted with grapevines. It is famed today for its 100-year-old Carignan vines and the densely sumptuous wines they produce. More typical, however, are its powerful Cabernet Sauvignon, spicy aromatic Carménère and plush Merlot reds. For whites, check out Maule's cheery Sauvignon Blanc and rounded Chardonnay. Chile’s Denominación de Origen (DO) classification system focuses on separating wines by the physical location of origin. To use the DO classification on a label, a producer must have pulled 85 percent of the fruit used in a wine from a defined regional location. The DO system names wine regions in the country from north to south.

"A nervy Cabernet Sauvignon. Forthright with cherry fruit underscored by diverting, but welcome, eucalyptus. Reserved tannins, pointed acidity and an overall freshness that will persist through a five-course meal." –Mike Dunne, 2021 Critics Challenge Int'l Wine & Spirits Competition.
