An unusual blend of 60% Carmenere and 40% Cabernet Sauvignon, this is a seriously complex wine. It has intense dark fruit, leather, spice and notes of bitter chocolate framed by a firm tannic structure. Serious stuff!

Press:

'A family winery dating back to the early 1960s, Vina Requingua has grown with the Chilean wine business to become an important player with more than 1,055ha of vineyard in the Curico, Colchagua and Maule Valleys.
The growth in scale has in no way affected their commitment to quality, however, as the judges recognised in this impressive blend.
"Dark, bible-black, and velvet smooth," they said. "A twang of blackcurrant balances the sweet fruitiness. This is high-quality winemaking at a very good price."' - The Wine Merchant Top 100 2018
