Cabernet Sauvignon (Red)

  Very mellow, soft and smooth.   It goes very well with light pasta, omelets, and chicken.

Carmenere (Red)

  “The Lost Grape”TM

  This grape is to Chile what Malbec is to Argentina.  It flavor is rich with slight spiciness.  The perfect wine with beef; superb with a homemade hamburger.  It ages very well.

The story of the “The Lost Grape”TM:

In the 1860’s in Bordeaux, France, the grape growing area was devastated by a horrible infestation.  However, before this problem happened, Chileans had taken these vines to their country.  Through all these years, Chile used the Carmenere as a Merlot.

About 10-12 years ago, a foreign enologist (expert in vines) came to Chile and proved to the Chileans that this particular grape was not Merlot, but CARMENERE.  The grapes look alike except the leaves are different.  Also, in the harvesting process (keeping in mind that Chile is 6 months ahead of us, different seasons) they harvest first the S. Blanc (around mid-February).  Then, the Chard, next the Cabernet, followed by the Merlot, and the last grape to ripen is the Carmenere (about May).

Sauvignon Blanc (White)

  A crisp fresh fruity wine.  This wine goes perfect with shellfish or fresh strawberries.

Chardonnay (white)

  A balanced wine, great with pork, chicken and salmon.  Mushrooms and avocado are good with this wine.
