Description:
Los Vascos's Chardonnay has a limited production. The objective is to make a fresh and delicate wine, with a harmonious and fruity bouquet. The vineyard's own Chardonnay grapes are complemented by a selection of grapes from Casablanca valley located further north between Santiago and Valparaiso, which is renowned for its great Chardonnay production.
Cabernet Sauvignon is the classic production of Los Vascos, and is the grape that made the estate famous. The vintages all share a mature and fruity quality, fresh aromas, and a supple and fleshy structure. 100% Cabernet Sauvignon this wine spends between 14 and 18 months in oak to produce an attractive ruby coloured wine displaying a red fruit nose and some very chocolate and bay leaf touches. This wine is pleasant with an excellent body, juicy and ripe character it is highly concentrated with strawberry and cherry fruit notes as well as marked spices this is a persistent and outstandingly balanced Cabernet Sauvignon. (12 x 75 cl)
In commemoration of the 10th years of Domaines Barons de Rothschild 's work in Chile, the exceptional quality of some of the cuvées led to the selection of an exceptional wine. Le Dix de Los Vascos originates from 50-year-old vines located in the parcel known as ''Los Frailes'', is aged in new French oak barrels. It is only produced in very limited quantities, depending on the concentration and the finesse of the vintage . (6 x 75 cl)
The rose of Los Vascos is made from grapes which are immediately pressed after harvesting. This preserves the freshness, the fruity aromas and the bright colour brought by the juice. A Rose made entirely from Cabernet Sauvignon it is a limpid and brilliant coloured wine with bright pink highlights. The wine has the typical aromas of the varietal characterised by strawberries accompanied by exotic raspberry fruit nuances. It is very fresh and juicy in the mouth with a pleasant harmony and good persistence. (12 x 75 cl)
