The Maule Valley terroir provides structure and body to the wine while the Colchagua Valley adds a fruity aromas. The grapes were fermented in stainless steel tanks and then aged in barriques and stainless steel tanks for 12 months.

On the nose, red berries, black berries, smoke and toasted aromas come through. Juicy on the palate, with cherry and chocolate notes in combination with toasted oak. This wine is well structured and full-bodied with smooth tannins and a long finish.

Food Pairing

Pair with prime ribs, chicken with paprika, or steak fajitas.
