Santiago Wines - Chile
Santiago in Chile’s central valley offers a good range of varietal wines of outstanding quality and value, all sealed with screwcaps ensuring freshness and reliability bottle after bottle. Add in the recent label redesign, and here is a thoroughly modern brand that reflects nicely the accessible and pure fruit flavours of Chilean wine. The whites offered are the ever-popular Sauvignon Blanc - light, lemony and zesty – and an unoaked Chardonnay, with a nice hint of tropical fruit richness. For reds, the hugely successful Merlot is vibrantly plummy and silky, while the Cabernet Sauvignon has elements of cassis and black cherry. In addition there is a juicy and quaffable rosé made from Cabernet Sauvignon. All five wines show the lovely purity of fruit and upfront appeal that seems to be the hallmark of Chilean wine.
