Vina Carmen NATIVA Organic Chardonnay Buin Maipo Chile

• Winemaker Comments: The fruitiness in the nose and the freshness on the palate show a good example of a well balance wine. The complexity given by the oak adds a pleasant creamy sensation. The green-yellow littering colour reminds limes, peaches, pineapples and lemons. This medium-bodied wine has an elegant and long finish. • Winemaking techniques: 100% of the grapes were handpicked and carefully selected before pressing. The grapes were crushed and macerated with the skins for 5 hours. With the skin contact we are looking for the intensity of the aromas and the elegance in the palate, the vineyards from warmer areas of Casablanca give the structure and a very concentrated body. After the pressing, which is one of the most important steps for the white wines, the juice was finned, racked and fermented in tanks and in barrels , where it remained during 4 month before blending and bottling. No malolactic fermentation was made in this wine. (12 x 75 cl)

An exquisite, full flavoured, blackcurranty wine of top quality. Splendid, complex Cabernet with both power and elegance, and delicious mouth-filling fruit. (6 x 75 cl)

One of the finest wines ever to come out of Chile, blended from some of the best cuvees put together by Alvaro Espinoza. This is his pride and joy. Wonderful deep garnet colour. Classic, unmistakable Cabernet nose and the small quantity of Merlot in the blend leaves it with a velvety, long, lingering finish. (6 x 75 cl)

'Intense aromas of red fruits and spice from the Syrah grape combine with the complex aromas and tobacco nuances of Cabernet Sauvignon to produce this memorable wine. Full bodied and beautifully balanced with soft, ripe tannins and good palate structure. Thrilling.' Tim Atkin, Decanter (6 x 75 cl)
