1865 Reserve Carmenère
Hailing from the D.O. Colchagua Valley, this exceptional wine showcases the region's unique terroir and careful craftsmanship with a deep ruby colour with violet hues.
The 2021-2022 season provided ideal growing conditions in the Colchagua Valley, with no frost events or major heat waves. This ensured the grapes reached optimal ripeness and quality.
Crafted with meticulous care, Reserve Carmenère 2022 undergoes a cold pre-fermentative maceration to extract the maximum aromas and flavours. The alcoholic fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks with selected yeasts at controlled temperatures. Three pump-overs are carried out daily to ensure gentle extraction and maintain the wine's integrity.
After fermentation, the wine is aged for 12 months in French and American oak barrels. This ageing process imparts a complex and elegant character to the wine, balancing the fruit flavours with subtle oak notes.
