This Cabernet Sauvignon has a bright vivid ruby red colour. It features ripe cherry and black currant with chocolate and pepper aroma, enhanced by sweet spices and vanilla and cinnamon notes. On the palate, this dry and full-bodied Cabernet Sauvignon offers a perfect balance between fruit and oak, ripe and soft tannins and a lingering finish.
Wine Maker Notes Santa Carolina is Carolina Wine Brand’s emblematic brand. It was created in 1875 and is among Chile’s oldest. Santa Carolina is currently the brand with the strongest presence worldwide; it carries the weight of the company’s history and traditions.
Technical Notes The grapes that make up this wine come from the foot of the Andes Mountains in Miraflores vineyards within the Colchagua Valley. Hardly known a decade ago, Colchagua is now becoming one of the most celebrated regions in Chile. Miraflores boasts some of the area’s oldest vines, where fruit can mature slowly thanks to varying temperatures between day and night. The combination of deep rocky soils and a warm, dry climate cooled by mountain breezes make it ideal for producing a refined example of Cabernet Sauvignon.
