About This Wine

Valle de Viñedo

Cabernet Sauvignon

Our Cab just earned 97 points from the 2022 International Women's Wine Competition!
Valle de Viñedo showcases the beauty of the Maule Valley with our Cabernet Sauvignon. Jammy black fruit flavors join the complexity and nuance of oak influence in this Chilean red. Cabernet Sauvignon is ideally suited to the Maule Valley's Mediterranean climate, where warm days bathe thick-skinned Cabernet grapes in sunlight, amplifying dark fruit notes and softening tannins. As night falls, temperatures plummet thanks to cooling winds from the nearby Andes Mountains. This puts ripening on pause and preserves the grape's natural acidity. Throughout the summer, the region's clay soils naturally hold onto water and keep vines refreshed. This harmonious relationship between climate and grape variety allows for a balanced, fruit-forward wine. It also makes it easy for winemakers to conserve water and use eco-friendly vineyard practices. This Cab is one one you'll be excited to enjoy and proud to share.

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.
