The wine region of Maule Valley
Historic cradle of Chilean viticulture (16th century). Quality revival around old-vine Carignan (70+ years): dense, deep reds with notes of blackberry, candied plum, spices and fine tannins, a unique expression. Sturdy Cabernet Sauvignon, supple Carménère (ripe pepper, black fruits), juicy Côt (Malbec), round Merlot. Some sharp Sauvignon Blanc.
The wine region of Central Valley
Heart of modern Chilean wine: structured, sunny reds, dense, blackcurranty Cabernet Sauvignon from Maipo (Chilean cradle of the grape), signature Carménère with notes of ripe pepper, black fruit and sweet spices from Colchagua, supple Merlot and deep Syrah. Round Chardonnay whites and lively, sharp Sauvignon. Mediterranean climate, 400 km between Andes and Pacific. Star sub-regions: Maipo, Cachapoal, Colchagua, Curicó, Maule.
The word of the wine: Downy mildew
Disease of the vine due to a fungus. Downy mildew is formidable because it attacks all the organs, from the stem to the grapes, including the leaves, in depth. It was against it that the famous copper and lime-based Bordeaux mixture was developed.
