The wine region of Aconcagua Valley

Chilean valley 100 km north of Santiago, dominated by Aconcagua summit (6,960 m). Powerful and sun-soaked flagship reds. Cabernet Sauvignon signature: dense with signature notes of blackcurrant, blackberry, cedar, eucalyptus, pepper and mineral touch, firm tannins and long aging — one of Chile's greatest (Don Maximiano, Seña). Brilliant peppery Syrah, spicy Carménère (grilled bell pepper), supple Merlot.
