As one of Chile's leading wine producers, Viña Valdivieso prides itself on its long-standing tradition and winemaking techniques. The harmonious blend of traditional methods and modern technology has resulted in high-quality wines with a distinct character. The grapes are sourced from the "Chada" vineyard, located in the Maipo Valley. This valley is renowned for producing high-quality Cabernet Sauvignon. The warm summers and mild autumns allow the grapes to reach optimal ripeness, developing excellent aromas, a strong structure, soft tannins, and all the elegant characteristics of Cabernet Sauvignon from this Chilean terroir. The grape bunches are meticulously hand-selected, harvested from the last week of April. They are then gently destemmed and fermented in stainless steel tanks for 7-10 days at a controlled temperature of 26 - 28°C. During fermentation, the must is pumped over three times daily. The wine undergoes post-fermentation maceration for 7-14 days. It is then aged for 12 months in 100% French oak barrels, of which 35% are new.
