Valdivieso, Single Vineyard Merlot

Valdivieso’s history dates to 1879, when Don Alberto Valdivieso founded Champagne Valdivieso S.A., the first sparkling wine house in South America. In the early 1980s they began to produce still wines and Valdivieso has since become one of the most awarded Chilean wineries in the history of the Challenge International du Vin in Bordeaux. Much of their recent success can be accredited to passionate and talented Kiwi winemaker, Brett Jackson. Based in Lontue, Valdivieso has a wealth of vineyards and the quality and unique attributes of the terroir is expressed in the single-vineyard wines. The range encapsulates everything that Chile excels at: rich, vibrant flavours and smooth, glossy textures.
