The estate and the wine |
|
|
At the foot of a volcano, surrounded by mountains and the Rio Maipo river, Viña Tarapacá benefits from an outstanding environment. Located about 50 kilometers south of Santiago, in the central valley (the most important production area of the country), the estate cultivates 600 hectares of volcanic land with regular irrigation.
The modern production emphasizes the balance between soils and grape varieties, with most of the varieties coming from Bordeaux. |

With 85% Carmenère and 15% Syrah, the 2021 Red Valle Central Carmenère expresses the straightforward nature of Carmenère in an ultra-pleasing style. Made from young vines and aged for only 3 months in oak barrels, the wine delivers beautiful notes of red and black fruits, with a beautiful concentration on the palate, silky tannins and an abundance of flavors of fruit. A sublime discovery and a Selection Committee Favorite rated 94/100. |
