CHILEAN WINES

Plush. Velvety. Smooth. Carménère was one the key components of great claret when First Growths were defined – but it’s now found mainly in Chile.

A unique oaked Chilean Chardonnay from the renowned Casablanca Valley region. Expect notes of citrus, stone fruit, vanilla and almond.

A silky, fresh Chardonnay made in the northernmost point in Chile. Expect notes of citrus and green apple, with a creamy texture and long length.

The Day One wines are a celebration of the first day of harvest in each vineyard. Expect flavours of citrus, blossom, pineapple and tropical fruit. Its creamy texture and refreshing acidity make it a brilliant pairing with salmon ceviche.

New Zealand favourites Mud House are exploring new terrain – with impressive results and great value.

Bold and spicy, with notes of blackberry, plum, coffee, vanilla and nutmeg. Try it with pork or hard cheeses.

Colchagua Valley is red wine country. Fresh. Fruity. This is intensely ripe, velvety Merlot from award-winning vineyards 900 meters above sea level.

Expressive, elegant Merlot from some of the steepest slopes in Chile. The altitude the grapes are grown at has given the wine a freshness that perfectly balances the rich flavours of black cherry, chocolate and vanilla.

This will be a fine accompaniment for a roast chicken.

It has complex aromas of tea, quince, flowers and lychee and a slight sweetness that contrasts well with fresh acidity. Pair it with cheeses, fish cakes or creamy Indian dishes.

Refreshing Sauvignon from the name behind a Marlborough classic – but this time it's Chilean. Citrusy, tropical, grassy, and a real treat with chilli prawns and a yoghurt dip.

This is a rich and textured Chardonnay, with notes of pineapple, apricot, vanilla and butterscotch. It has a gentle nuttiness that matches well with creamy chicken.

This will be perfect with nice pink roast lamb.

A symphony of ripe, dense black fruit flavour, structured by muscular yet velvety tannins.

Luscious and elegant Pinot Noir from Chile's Casablanca Valley.

This is a juicy, tropical Sauvignon, with notes of pineapple, passionfruit and lemon. Simply excellent with fish.

It has aromas of blackcurrant, black pepper and ripe red fruits – as well as an enticing note of chocolate. Soft and juicy tannins mean it’ll really shine when paired with grilled red meats or mature cheeses.

Expect aromas of ripe lemon and orange peel, with a silky texture and crisp finish. Serve with pork chops and fennel.
