 New
Varietals from Maquis
Winemakers Alejandro Jofré, Ricardo Rivadeneira Hurtado and viticulturist
Xavier Choné (pictured left) make wines that reflect the extraordinary
character of their Colchagua Valley vineyard. The vineyard's unique
soil and topography results in wines that are appealingly fruity
with excellent structure and length. The winery is pleased to introduce
two brand new varietals, in addition to its popular “Lien”
red wine blend:
 NEW!
Maquis 2009 Carmenère
This wine has an expressive nose with hints of laurel,
spicy clove and a pleasant note of rosemary. On the palate, it’s
fresh, with sweet tannins and a full-bodied flavor that ends in
a lovely, lingering finish.
NEW! Maquis 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon
 With
a nose of cinnamon, clove, cocoa and red fruits, this fresh and
vibrant wine has a long finish and tannins that come together to
produce a smooth, beautiful, harmonious flavor.

94 points (this vintage was also recently lauded by
Wine Enthusiast); Pargua 2007 receives

Additionally, wine expert Dan Berger names the 2009

calling it a “simple,
low-oak red wine that is a little richer in the mid-palate
than many wines priced this low.”
