About This Wine


Castillo Quebrado

Cabernet Sauvignon

The wait is over. Our highly anticipated new vintage of Castillo Quebrado Cabernet Sauvignon is here. This wine offers silky textures with layers of fruit-driven flavor, oak and Chilean Cab's classic earthy character. Following in the footsteps of its previous 90 point vintage, our 2020 Cabernet is a stunning reflection of the Maule Valley. Here, the Maule River runs from the ocean to the base of the Andes Mountains, moderating high temperatures during the day. Cold nights slow ripening and lengthen the growing season. These conditions result in perfect ripeness and balanced acidity. This wine is a Cab-lovers delight, particularly those who crave bushels of fruit flavor with Chilean wine's herbaceous and rustic character. Bring it along to your next gathering to impress family and friends, or cellar it for a special occasion. Scroll through the image carousel above to learn more about this wine.

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.
