Chile is known for producing great value, everyday wines from Merlot or Malbec but this is a country which can also produce stunning wines of style and character. Vines flourish because of Chile’s extraordinary microclimate — why else would Domaines Baron de Rothschild choose to make wine here? Try this case to see how good Chilean wines can get.
The Chile's finest mixed case costs £76 and includes three bottles each of the following four wines.
Kintu Sauvignon Blanc 2008: Bursting with fruit, this crisp sauvignon has flavours of tropical fruit, apple and gooseberry and is ideal for most fish dishes.
Estampa Viognier/Chardonnay 2008: An interesting and very successful blend of two grape varieties which enhances the complexity of the wine. The viognier provides rich, ripe fruit whilst the chardonnay gives good structure and freshness.
Rio Alto Cabernet Sauvignon 2008: Wonderful drink-me-now cabernet from one of Chile’s finest producers. This is a perfect match for most grilled meats.
Montes Classic Series Malbec 2007: From the founding father of quality in Chile, this malbec is rich and beautifully structured with smooth creamy ripe fruit — perfect with most rich foods.
