Caleuche Reserva Malbec 2019
The Caleuche, according to Chilean legend, is a ghost ship that sails the canals of southern Chile and is tripulated by powerful sorcerers. The ship sails at night, and there is always a continuous flow of magic, music, party and wine on board. If someone who is not a witch or sorcerer approaches the ship, they quickly become a floating piece of wood forever.
Tasting notes
Bright and intense violet red color. Bright and ripe fruit on the nose with cherries, blueberries, strawberries, violets and a light touch of gunpowder typical of the Malbec grape in South America. This is a fresh, concentrated, and easy to drink wine with well structured, sweet tannins. Meant to be consumed young, this Malbec will pair well with lean red meats, blue and firm cheeses, and roasted vegetables or tagines. Mocha, blackberry, coffee and some of that gunpowder smoke linger in the aftertaste.
Description
Caleuche Reserva Malbec from Maule Valley, Chile
Grape: 100% Malbec
The Maule Valley is located in the southern part of Chile’s Central Valley. This area, where we find the largest vineyards in all of Chile, has a tradition of growing grapes that dates back to the 17th century.
Located between the Andes Mountains and the Chilean Coast Range, the Maule Valley benefits from a significant temperature variation between day and night, with its rainy season restricted mainly to winter. These conditions allow us to obtain healthy grapes, with high concentrations of color, flavor and aromas.
FEATURED: 290 hectares of own vineyards allow Aromo to obtain the best wines including the Caleuche Reserva Malbec.
Four estates:
- El Trapiche
- Ventolera
- Santa Margarita
- El Pilar
