Description:

Vina San Pedro was founded in 1865 in the Curico Valley by the Correa brothers. Today, more than 150 years later, it's still San Pedro's home valley. The brothers were pioneers in bringing different varieties from the Old Continent to the Valley.

San Pedro is now one of the most important vineyards in Chile and one of the top exporters, present in more than 80 countries around the world.

Also, San Pedro's Cachapoal Andes winery, home to the finest wines, is a place to discover the highest expression of Chileís diverse terroirs. Here, wines likes Altair, Cabo de Hornos and Sideral are made.

The Cachapoal Andes winery is located 110 km south of the city of Santiago, with vineyards at the foot of the Andes. Planted 500 meters above sea level, the vines are exposed to wide temperature variations between day and night, a peculiarity that allows the fruit to mature slowly, resulting in grapes with improved acidity, tannins, flavors, and aromatic profiles.

Tasting Note: 
Great aromatic intensity, complex and elegant. Upfront notes of citrus peel, like grapefruit, along with tropical notes, including passionfruit, intermingled with herbal notes like asparagus. Fresh and with good volume. This is a well-balanced wine with vibrant acidity and a long finish in which the notes perceived on the nose reappear
