Description

The Region

The Millahue Valley is situated within the Cachapoal Valley, which itself is part of the larger Rapel Valley wine region in central Chile. It is located to the west of the Andes Mountains and benefits from a Mediterranean climate with warm summers and cool ocean breezes from the nearby Pacific Ocean.

It’s characterized by diverse soils, including alluvial and colluvial soils, which contribute to the region’s unique terroir. The valley’s proximity to the Pacific Ocean and the Andes Mountains also plays a role in creating different microclimates within the region.

The Wine

This great Cabernet Nouveau offers a deep and generous
expression of VIK’s terroir, inspired by an elegant Cabernet Sauvignon, showcasing the youthful purity and diversity of Millahue. It reflects the cold winds from the Pacific Ocean and the ancient soils of the Coastal Range, all interpreted through a circular winemaking approach that respects nature.

It presents intense aromas of ripe red fruits, such as cherries, red currants, black currants, and raspberries, with delicate floral notes of roses and spices. On the palate, it is juicy and delightfully fruity, with a round, silky texture and soft, fine tannins with a clean and abundant flavor. Its balanced and intense acidity, sometimes sharp, adds movement and vibrancy, making it refreshing and enjoyable to drink, perfect for opening and enjoying immediately or keeping for just a few more months. Its bright, intense garnet or cherry color with violet reflections captivates the eye perpetually. Certified vegan.

Ideal serving temperature 12ºC.
