Errazuriz’s products from the Aconcagua Alto appellation offer great value ! Obviously dominated by Cabernet Sauvignon (88%), the contribution of Petit Verdot (7%) and Cabernet Franc (5%) in this lovely blend should not be minimized. The sun soaked nose displays currant and blackberry with some oak and vegetal hints. Some firm tannins are balanced by ripe, round flavours and refreshing acidity. Medium bodied with good length, match this charming rojo with simply grilled lamb chops. Enjoy!

Crafted by a foursome of young Spanish winemakers looking for forgotten terroirs and grape varieties.  A lovely blend of Mencia (80%) with hints of Souson and Trousseau from northwest Spain. A charming «Natural» red that is curiously reminiscent of Pinot Noir! The nose exudes red berry scents with discreet floral and animal hints. Medium bodied at most, the mouthfeel is fresh and elegant with supple tannins and good length. This charming, original red merits our attention, but fans of rich, full bodied rojo should abstain.
