Product Notes

Viña Echeverria Reserva Cabernet Sauvignon is a bold and intense wine sourced from the Maipo Valley in Chile. It boasts a deep ruby color and a complex aroma that combines blackcurrant, dark chocolate, and hints of black pepper and vanilla. On the palate, this wine offers a full-bodied and robust experience with well-rounded tannins and a long, lingering finish. The rich flavors of black fruit and spices are balanced by a subtle oakiness thanks to its aging in French and American oak barrels. This wine is perfect to pair with grilled meats, hearty stews or mature cheeses. Overall, Viña Echeverria Reserva Cabernet Sauvignon is a delightful Chilean wine that showcases the unique terroir of the Maipo Valley.

Tasting Notes

A round and vibrant Cabernet Sauvignon with plum and strawberry flavours combined with hints of red pepper and spice. The palate is smooth and well balanced, with a fruity and long lasting finish.

About the Winery

Viña Echeverria

The wines from the Chilean brand of Echeverria are some of the most historical in this region. The Echeverria family originally belonged to Spain, but moved to Chile during the 1750s to make it big in the wine industry. It was during 1930 that this family realised the potential of the Curico Valley, located at a distance of 200km from the Chilean capital of Santiago.

In the year 1979 Roberto Echeverria, in a bid to realise his winemaking passion and carry forward his family’s historic winemaking tradition, got to work to transform the wine scene in Chile. After almost 15 years of single-minded dedication towards his objective, he was able to release the label’s first wine in the international market in the year 1993.

One of the main reasons for the unique flavour and characteristics of the wines created here is the quality of the soil, favourable climatic conditions and nature of terroir in the Curico Valley. Thanks to the abundant presence of the sea breezes and the mountains on the coastal side, the climate here favour the production of intense red & white varietals. It is not surprising to know that more than 30 varietals of grapes are grown in this estate.

The vineyards cover an area of 65 hectares and the main varietals cultivated here are Chardonnay, Merlot, Pinot Noir, Cabernet Sauvignon, Sauvignon Blanc, Viognier, Carmenere and Cabernet Franc. Precision viticulture is the technique followed here, due to which, a detailed system is followed in the process of cultivation & harvesting of grapes.

When you visit the wine estate, don’t miss out on the beautiful museum situated right in the centre. This was a cellar earlier and it still houses some of the relics from the last century. Inside the museum, you will find the 30000l wooden vat even today. Minimum intervention is the winemaking technique followed here.
