Description
ERRAZURIZ MAX CARMENERE WINE 75CL These wines are the result of Viña Errázuriz's exploration of the Aconcagua Valley, seeking the best and purest expression of each variety. Wines that show their true sense of origin. Two geographical landmarks make up this line: Mount Aconcagua, the highest mountain in the Western Hemisphere, and the Pacific Ocean, with the coldest waters in the world.Viña Errázuriz has been devoted to its philosophy of excellence and innovation since 1870, consolidating as Chile's top benchmark in quality fine wines recognized by top international critics. We name our Max wines to honour our founder, Maximiano Errázuriz. After 12 months of French oak ageing, this Carmenere is rich but elegant with black fruit, spicy aromas and soft tannins.
The story of Errazuriz begins in 1870 when Don Maximiano Errazuriz, recognising the amazing potential of the Aconcagua Valley, transformed this barren land into a world class wine producing region and creating the very first vineyards in the valley we now call home.

Chile produces some of the world's best Carmenère, and this is a brilliant example. Rich but elegant this red wine has black and red fruits, spicy pepper aromas and notes of chocolate and roasted coffee. Fresh yet delicate, with fine-grained tannins and a silky texture on the palate.
Vinification Details
Grapes were handpicked and taken to the winery to be prepared for fermentation. The wine was then aged in French oak barrels for 1 year before release, resulting in beautiful integrated tannins and a soft gentle finish for this Chilean Carmenere.
History
Don Maximiano Errázuriz founded Viña Errázuriz in 1870 when he planted the first French grape varieties in Chile's Aconcagua Valley. His initiative, creativity and belief that the best wines come from the best land has been passed down through subsequent generations and today Viña Errázuriz remains family owned by the Chadwick family. Working hand in hand with nature, the family and winemaking teams are constantly striving to produce great Chilean wines, produced in a sustainable, responsible way.
Regional Information
The grapes for Max Carmenere come from Errazuriz's Max vineyards in Chile's Aconcagua Valley. Located close to Errazuriz's winery in Panquehue, the special conditions of these diverse soils mean the Carmenere grapes develop tremendous concentration of aromas and flavours resulting in a ripe and juicy red wine with great balance and softness.
