Gold Medal winner at the Sakura Japan Women’s Wine Awards.
A well-crafted Chilean Cabernet Sauvignon is one of life’s great pleasures. Almost nowhere on Earth creates quite such perfect varietal representations of this grape. Viu Manent pick the grapes for this wine by hand from the best vines in their La Capilla Vineyard near the town of Peralillo. Matured in a combination of French oak and concrete eggs it’s a stone-cold classic Cabernet Sauvignon. Crème de cassis ripe cherry spiced plum crumble tobacco leather wildflowers and sweet garden herbs flavours make this a fine choice for steak night rosemary roasted lamb roasted beetroot barbeques or anything with caramelised onions in it.
“Viu Manent makes excellent wines across the board” according to the respected American wine critic James Suckling. Founded in 1935 the winery is still owned and run by the Viu family. Their ancestors came to Chile from Catalonia and today their extensive vineyards spread across 254 hectares of the Colchagua Valley which can be visited on antique horse-drawn carriage tours. In fact Decanter Magazine ranks Viu Manent in the Top 10 wineries to visit for foodies presumably in no small part because of their stunningly food-friendly wines.
