2012 Sauvignon Blanc
Penalolen's Sauvignon Blanc comes from Chile's prestigious cool
climate appellation, the Casablanca Valley. With this wine,
Penalolen demonstrates how impressive Sauvignon Blanc can be
when grown in the right place and guided by a talented winemaker.
The use of pure, ripe fruit gives this wine a powerfully rich
and complex flavor free from oak or residual sugar. The aromas
of mandarin orange and fresh cut flowers, combined with good
acidity, make this Sauvignon Blanc a classic partner for food.

2010
Estate Cabernet Sauvignon
Low yields and hand harvesting indicate the care given to the
superior fruit from this single-vineyard winery located on the
gravelly slopes of the Maipo Valley. These standards extend
to the wine-making process, with meticulous grape selection
and aging in French oak barrels for 12 months. Made from a blend
of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc, this is a
complex and velvety wine with a soft structure, spicy tannins,
and a fruity finish. The Wine Spectator gave a prior
vintage 90 points.

for 15 months.
