It appears a garnet red colour with violet highlights. The bouquet reveals a pronounced \u003cstrong\u003epurity of fruit\u003c\/strong\u003e, with aromas of blueberries, cherries and blackcurrants, followed by balsamic notes, violet, sweet spices and cocoa. On the palate it is juicy and lively, supported by \u003cstrong\u003efirm and fine tannins\u003c\/strong\u003e that provide excellent structure. The finish is deep and persistent, enhanced by subtle hints of liquorice and graphite.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere it comes from\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis wine originates in the Aconcagua Valley, from hillside vineyards that benefit from a cooler climate compared to the valley floor, ensuring balanced phenolic development. The estate, founded by Robert Mondavi and Eduardo Chadwick, operates according to the principles of \u003cstrong\u003ebiodynamic agriculture\u003c\/strong\u003e. These \u003cstrong\u003esustainable practices\u003c\/strong\u003e maximise the value of the local \u003cstrong\u003eterroir\u003c\/strong\u003e, delivering an authentic and complex expression that faithfully reflects the geological and climatic identity of the Chilean wine landscape.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow it is produced\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA careful \u003cstrong\u003emanual harvest\u003c\/strong\u003e in the morning and a double sorting table ensure a rigorous selection of the grapes. Fermentation takes place at controlled temperature in stainless steel and concrete vats, with daily pump-overs. Each individual variety undergoes targeted maceration for optimal extraction. This is followed by a long \u003cstrong\u003ematuration in wood\u003c\/strong\u003e for twenty-two months in \u003cstrong\u003eFrench oak barrels\u003c\/strong\u003e and large Stockinger foudres, during which malolactic fermentation is completed naturally. This slow ageing softens the structural components and consolidates the harmony of the wine.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory and Curiosities\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBorn in 1995 in the Aconcagua Valley from the vision of Robert Mondavi and Eduardo Chadwick, this \u003cstrong\u003eiconic Chilean blend\u003c\/strong\u003e stands alongside the great Bordeaux and the finest Super Tuscans in terms of prestige.
