Enjoy a fresh, fruit-forward Cab shaped by Chilean terroir
ABOUT THIS WINE:
Literaria '42
Cabernet Sauvignon
Literaria '42 proudly presents the spirit of Chile from the heart of its vineyards. Our Cabernet Sauvignon offers a fresh, fruit-forward take on Chilean red wine with cheerful berry notes and hints of oak-driven spice. Chile's most widely planted grape, Cabernet Sauvignon, thrives in the Maule Valley. While some associate Chile with rich and rustic red wines, our Cabernet embodies a more vibrant style. The Maule Valley's sun-soaked Mediterranean climate and cool mountain air shape its bright textures and fruit-forward flavors. This versatile wine makes an excellent companion to warm summer days or cozy winter nights shared with good company. Enjoy it alongside South American classics like juicy grilled lamb or hearty charquican stew. Scroll through the image carousel above to learn more about this wine.

WINE REGION:
Maule Valley DO
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.
