The Wine

Peñalolen Cabernet Sauvignon / SRP $20.00

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, Petit Verdot, and Cabernet Franc, this is a complex and velvety wine with a soft structure, spicy tannins and a fruity finish.

Guerrero Cabernet Sauvignon / SRP $40.00

Guerrero Cabernet Sauvignon is produced by the prestigious
Domus Aurea property. The pedigree of the fruit for Guerrero goes
back almost 75 years when many of these Cabernet Sauvignon vines
were planted. The nose displays hints of raspberries, plum and blackberries with notes of mocha. In the mouth the fruit is rich with velvety tannins,
balanced with bright mineral notes and a long, complex finish.
