The wine region of Rapel Valley
Vast central Chilean valley, ~25% of national output. Carmenère, emblem of Chile: dense reds with signature notes of blackberry, plum, green pepper, coffee, cocoa and spice, round tannins — a grape rediscovered here in 1994. Also firm Cabernet Sauvignon (blackcurrant, eucalyptus), supple Merlot, peppery Syrah. Encompasses Cachapoal to the north (cooler, higher altitude) and Colchagua to the south (warm, fleshy stars).
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: Champagne rosé
Often obtained by adding red wines (from Champagne), it is even the only vineyard where this practice is allowed. Some producers prefer the practice used in other regions, i.e. a short maceration to extract sufficient colouring matter. This results in winey rosés for meals. Elegant aperitif rosé is more often made from red wine coloured Chardonnay. Rosés can be vintage or non vintage.
