Our Red Blend begins with Carignan for an intense base, body, and color. For added structure, we have added Cabernet Franc to enhance the mid-palate, finishing off with a bit Syrah for a persistent silky-soft finish.
The majority of the blend is grown in the Maule Valley, a sub-humid Mediterranean region, that shows well-marked seasons, a high amount of sunlight, and has an annual rainfall of 25 inches.
