Valle de Viñedo
Maule Valley DO, Chile
Enjoy the lighter side of Chardonnay from Gold Medal-winning Valle de Viñedo
ABOUT THIS WINE:
Valle de Viñedo
Chardonnay
In a world where “oaky” Chardonnays are common, our Valle de Viñedo is a refreshing change. Our winemaking team describes this wine as “clean and lean.” Zesty citrus, tangy stone fruit, and delightful floral characteristics make this a bright and welcoming take on this versatile grape variety. This fruit comes from the fertile soils of Chile’s Maule Valley. Here, the region’s cool climate is accentuated by the moderating effects of the large Maule River, which runs through the middle of the Maule Valley. Our Chilean winemaking partners have over 130 years of experience and are well acquainted with the unique splendor of this region. We are excited to offer you a taste of Chardonnay’s diverse styles and encourage you to share your discovery with family and friends. Serve this wine well chilled alongside salty dishes or as a thirst quencher on a sunny day. Scroll through the image ca ...

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.

TASTING NOTES:
Lychee
Honeysuckle
Pineapple
Our Chardonnay is bright and balanced. Aromas of lychee and honeysuckle drift upwards from your glass and invite you into a fruit-forward and friendly palate. White peach and pineapple flavors are joined by zesty pomelo with a mineral-like texture of wet stones on the finish.

ABOUT THE BRAND:
Valle de Viñedo
Chile is known for its dramatic landscape, which is unlike any other. As you travel inland from one of the world's longest coastlines, the landscape shifts abruptly, climbing to the extreme heights of the Andes Mountains. Between these soaring peaks, pockets and valleys become the cradle for vineyards, creating the ideal climate for viticulture. Valle de Viñedo wines, too, are unlike any other. With each sip, prepare to be transported.
