All grapes are grown and hand harvested with meticulous care to guarantee the integrity of the fruit, and picked early in the morning when the weather is coolest. Peñalolén is truly a family-owned, boutique winery committed to making wines of distinction.

2007 Sauvignon Blanc
Penalolen's Sauvignon Blanc comes from Chile's prestigious cool climate appellation, the Limari 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.

Suggested Retail: $12.00

   Vina Penalolen Cabernet Sauvignon Wine Label 2006 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 85% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Merlot and 8% Cabernet Franc, this is a complex and velvety wine with a soft structure, spicy tannins, and a fruity finish. The Wine Spectator enthusiastically described the prior vintage as “rock solid” and gave it 90 points.

Suggested Retail: $18.00
