A very nice value Chardonnay that comfortably over-delivers vs. its modest price tag. No oak here, just bushels of clean, crisp, Chardonnay apple and stone fruit with a hint of caramelized pineapple. Juicy and clean, this is a mid-weight white that's just perfect for parties or weeknight sipping.

Here’s a surprise – a value-priced Pinot Noir that’s a) from Chile; and b) really tastes like Pinot Noir! The aromas feature spicy cranberry and raspberry fruit with a dash of fresh earth and a touch of Chile’s signature herbal notes. In the mouth it’s supple and sweetly fruited with raspberry and blueberry fruit plus a bit of nutskin and a juicy, clean, finish. Easy to sip solo and a fine match for wide range of foods. And, very, very, fine value!
- Chilensis Reserva Cabernet Sauvignon 2011 Product #27006 (In Stock)

This is a big "bang for the buck" Cabernet from Chile that reminds you how Chile first established its global reputation for top quality Cab at rock-bottom prices. Fruit for this wine grows near Chile’s Coastal Mountain range in the Colchagua Valley. Daytime high temperatures can reach 98 degrees here, but cooling breezes from the Pacific Ocean cool the fruit at night to preserve freshness and acidity.
This 100% Cabernet Sauvignon delivers plenty of classic Cabernet fruit – currant, plum, and blackberries. It also display's Chile's trademark whiff of herbs and some appealing tobacco aromas, giving the wine more complexity than you’d expect at this price. In the mouth, it’s juicy and satisfying, with an extra dose of black raspberry and currant fruit. The juicy acids keep everything in balance and make this a flexible companion with a wide range of foods. - Marchigue Carmenere Gran Reserva 2010 Product #26230 (In Stock)

They thought it was Merlot, but Chilean wine growers have learned it's actually a Bordeaux varietal. Here you'll find the rich, dark-fruited, side of the grape with notes of espresso, cocoa, and tobacco around the black currant and berry fruit. Finishes firm and clean with lingering sage, tobacco, and thyme notes. Excellent value for cookouts or weeknight meals.
"This carmenere has some of the leafy character that defines the grape, but it is balanced by dark-fruit flavors, a hint of smoky earth and medium body that make it an attractive wine — and even more attractive at this price. BEST BUY" Washington Post, August 15, 2012

A spicy value in Sauvignon Blanc from the Casablanca Valley in Chile. Bold aromas of grapefruit,white flowers and fresh herb. Then sweet and spicy in the mouth with plenty of citrus and tropical fruits and a dash of fresh grass. Juicy and mouthwatering on the finish where a touch of pink grapefruit pith lingers. Fine to sip or pair with salads or fruit dishes
- Santa Ema Amplus One 2008 Product #27110 (In Stock)

A sophisticated, complex, and very, very, tasty blend of Chile’s own Carmenère (75%) plus dark and meaty Syrah (20%) and blue fruited and mineral Carignan, all aged in French oak for 12 months. The stylish flavors and satiny structure will have you thinking this is a $30 Bordeaux from a fine vintage (like 2009) or perhaps an unusually restrained and sophisticated Napa Meritage blend. Only your wallet needs to know differently!
“The 2008 Amplus One is made up of 75% Carmenere, 20% Syrah, and 5% Carignan. It displays aromas of damp earth, balsamic, herbs, blueberry, and black plum. On the palate, it reveals some elegance, savory flavors, good volume, and a bit of structure. This tasty effort will provide pleasure over the next 6 years.”Wine Advocate 91 points
“Impressive and generous, this gets going with full berry and chocolaty oak aromas. The well-structured palate bears lightly herb-tinged flavors of berry and chocolate. It finishes dry, peppery and sturdy as a cinder block.”Wine Enthusiast 91 points
“Sleek, with nice focus and purity for the vintage, as the damson plum, cherry and red currant fruit is carried by fine-grained structure. Lingering whiffs of tobacco and mineral mark the finish. Carmenère, Syrah, Carignan.” Wine Spectator 90 points
