CABERNET BLEND CHILE 2020

January 2023 Red Wine of the Month
We’re kicking off the new year with this exclusive Lynfred Winery Cabernet Sauvignon blend produced with grapes grown in one of the most famous wine-grape regions in the world: Maipo Valley, Chile. Maipo Valley is home to some of Chile’s most prestigious wines and is often described as the ‘Bordeaux of South America’. We added a touch of Carmenere and Petit Verdot to recreate a Bordeaux-style blend with vibrant, complex, and fruit-driven flavors.

Blend: 85% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Carmenere, 5% Petit Verdot
Grower/Vineyard: Maipo Valley, Chile
