 Pargua
Winemaker Jean Pascal Lacaze believes that wine is only as
good as the grapes from which it is made. At Pargua's Maipo Valley
winery, Lacaze grows grapes sustainably and organically, using only
the best fruit and carefully selected wood barrels.
Lacaze produces two organic wines: Pargua, a limited
production Cabernet Sauvignon blend, and Anka,
a more moderately priced red blend. The
2007 Anka received an impressive 90 points in the July issue of
Wine Enthusiast, where it was described as “easygoing
and generous.” The International Wine Review awarded
the same vintage 92 points, calling it “nicely structured
and balanced.”
Lacaze is also winemaker for Peñalolén
and the award-winning Domus Aurea Cabernet Sauvignon.
