  2020 ‘TH’ Cabernet Sauvignon Cauquenes, Undurraga

  £2450

  Head winemaker Rafael Urrejola has spent a great deal of time understanding the diversity of Chile’s vineyard sites; the result is the emblematic ‘Terroir Hunter’ range.

  Defined by its structure and complexity, this is an expressive and powerful Cabernet Sauvignon revealing aromas of red fruit, spice and earthy notes. Opulent, with beautifully integrated tannins and a long, full-flavoured finish.

  The Cauquenes area is part of DO Valle de Maule. The region has a warm temperate climate, with generally warm, dry summers with daytime temperatures ranging from 28 to 30°C and cool nights of 8 to 11°C. The estate vineyard was planted in 2009 and is located on the bank of the Tutuvén River, which has a cooling effect on the vines during the warm afternoons. The vineyard has deep soils with variable texture. The topsoil consists of clay with high silica content, with partially weathered granite and even quartz in the subsoil; these properties allow for good water retention, releasing it slowly as the vines need it.

  2017 Finis Terrae Red, Cousino Macul

  £2895

  Finis Terrae, which is Latin for “End of the Earth”, is a flagship red blend that embodies the essence of the Maipo Valley and the winemaking heritage of Cousiño Macul. This wine represents the culmination of careful selection and blending, where only the finest barrels of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot from the estate’s vineyards are chosen after extensive tasting trials to find the perfect expression of balance and harmony.

The texture is smooth yet structured, with a long, refined finish marked by hints of dark chocolate, spice, and forest floor.

  2017 ‘Altazor’, Undurraga

  £5995

  An exceptional wine revealing expressive aromatic layers, balanced concentration and wonderful complexity. Deep red fruits and blackberries are underpinned by earthy nuances, subtle spice and mineral notes with a touch of tobacco. The structured palate shows depth of flavour and integrated tannins, through to an everlasting finish. Drinking Window 2022 – 2030

  The grapes for this wine were carefully selected from small plots. The Cabernet Sauvignon comes from estate vineyards planted in the early 1990s, in Pirque and Los Morros, in Alto Maipo. The Pirque vineyard contains alluvial soils with medium composition with a high level of stone content, whereas Los Morros consists of soils of colluvial-alluvial origin. Both soil types have medium to low fertility, good depth of 1.5 to 2 metres and good drainage; ideal conditions to produce wines of character. The Carménère grapes come from an estate vineyard in the Colchagua Valley planted in the mid-1980s. The clay loam soil textures are dominant which is ideal for this variety as they retain soil moisture ensuring optimum and prolonged ripening. The Carignan grapes come from a rain-fed vineyard planted in 1958, in the Maule Valley. It contains soils with clay texture, high quartz content, subsoil of granitic origin and good drainage.

  2019 Lota, Cousino Macul

  £7200

  Red Wine of the Year, 97 points, Tim Atkin MW, 2023 Report on Chilean wines.

  Lota is the flagship wine of Cousiño Macul, an emblem of heritage, precision, and exceptional terroir. Sourced from the winery’s most treasured parcels, including Cabernet Sauvignon vines planted in 1932, this wine represents the pinnacle of the family’s winemaking tradition. These ungrafted vines are descendants of original French cuttings brought to Chile in the 1860s and grow at the foot of the Andes, 600 meters above sea level, in rocky, loamy soils that yield naturally low quantities of intensely concentrated fruit.

  In the glass, the 2019 Lota reveals a nose that is rich and layered, offering aromas of cassis, blackberry, and black cherry interwoven with cedar, cocoa, and subtle hints of warm spice. On the palate, it is full-bodied and structured, yet impressively refined. Lush black fruit flavours are framed by fine, ripe tannins and nuanced oak, creating a harmonious balance that culminates in a long, elegant, and ultra-smooth finish.

  This is a wine of power, grace, and provenance, worthy of extended cellaring, but compellingly drinkable now. Ideal for collectors and connoisseurs seeking a Cabernet-based wine that marries Old World sophistication with New World vitality.

  2019 VIK, Viña VIK

  £15500 Original price was: £15500.£13500Current price is: £13500. 13% saving

  VIK is a remarkable visionary Bordeaux style blend and can be considered as a Chilean ‘First’ Growth.

  Elegant, silky and complex, with captivating aromatic intensity and freshness. The ripe, expressive fruit flavours are layered with violet and spice through to lasting finish full of finesse.

  Created by Alex and Carrie VIK, the vineyard was born amidst the foothills of the Andes mountains, within the Millahue Valley, named “Lugar de Oro” or “Golden Place” by the native Mapuche people: 4,300 hectares of astonishing Chilean wilderness where they planted over 327 hectares of vines. Holism is the concept that best reflects the VIK spirit. It is the perfect union of humans and nature as an integrated whole. The holistic wines are the result of a magnificent, dynamic terroir and the best winegrowing and winemaking techniques and practices, coupled with superlative work to protect and enhance the environment, concern for human and social development, and a focus on art and architecture. Cristian Vallejo, Vik’s chief winemaker, is considered as a “terroir purist”, inventing its own concepts of barroir (barrels toasted with wood of roble trees that have fallen on their lands) and amphoir (amphoras made with clay from Millahue).

  2023 Stonevik, Viña VIK

  £16500

  A full-bodied blend imbued with tightly layered tannins giving a velvety texture and notes of blackberry, earthy notes, mushroom, graphite and herbal hints of sage. Delicious and long with chocolatey tones on the everlasting finish.

  STONEVIK is a natural wine created in nature by nature. A blend of Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon and Carménère from vineyards where the best holistic, organic and biodynamic practices were used.

  The grapes were fermented in toasted oak barrels with the Barroir method (with oak fallen from the property) for a period equivalent to a lunar cycle. The wine is then aged in handmade amphorae made by artisans using the same clay as VIK’s terroir. A total of 7 amphorae, 3 in honour of the universe and 4 in honour of the earth, aligned according to astronomical principles. The amphorae are semi-buried in the highest peak of VIK Park, over 1,000 meters above sea level, surrounded by centenary oak trees, in a sector VIK call “La Roblería”. It is there where STONEVIK lies under the wisdom of the forest and where, in each summer solstice, nature gives us this exceptional wine.

  2005 Cabernet Sauvignon Gold Reserve, Carmen – 3000ml/Jeroboam

  £25000

  This single-vineyard, ultra-premium, ultra-rare jeroboam of Vina Carmen’s Gold Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon was imported by us many years ago along with a jeroboam of 2004 and has with its sibling been in our cellars ever since.   Yes, the label is slightly battered but the levels are perfect and it is a magnificent celebration drink!    As with all top end Cabernet Sauvignon it has the ability to age very well and the winemaker suggested a maturity date of 2025 for this vintage and wine.  The fact it is a Jeroboam should add another 5 years to that!    We recently opened a magnum of both the 2004 & 2005 and the wines were sensational.

  This 2005 is brimming with ripe berries, espresso, chocolate syrup and cassis with sweet, exotic spice aromas. Velvety on the palate with dense berry and mocha flavours, the tannins are powerful but ripe and the linger is substantial.  A family celebration bottle if ever there was!
