Located in the Central Valley of Chile, the Colchagua region enjoys a warm, Mediterranean-type climate and excellent soil drainage. Cool Pacific breezes and the influence of the Andes Mountains allow the grapes to ripen perfectly while maintaining the necessary acid balance. When choosing a beverage from this territory, it is worth paying attention to these styles:
Rich and tannic Colchagua red beverages unfold perfectly when tasted with intense food. They are an ideal companion to roast beef, venison dishes, barbecue ribs, or spicy meat snacks. Carménère pairs particularly well with dishes rich in herbs and spices.
Is white wine produced in the Colchagua Valley?
Although the region is dominated by red varieties, excellent white wine from Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc grapes is also produced in the cooler parts of the valley closer to the ocean.
What is the "Apalta" subregion?
Apalta is a particularly prestigious small territory in the Colchagua Valley where, due to its unique amphitheater-shaped terrain, perfect conditions are created to grow premium red grapes. Wines from here often receive top global ratings.
Is it necessary to decant these wines?
Yes, especially if it is a young, high-class Cabernet Sauvignon or Syrah. Decanting will help open up the rich bouquet of aromas and soften the tannins.
