The pleasant, everyday drinker from Veneto, Italy. Made from 100% Merlot.

Food pairings: Good with grilled meats and cheeses.

About the producer: Bío Bío Valley is one of Chile's more extreme wine-producing regions, experiencing more wind, rain, and climatic variation than most of the rest of the country. The cool climate – and the extended growing season it allows – is much better suited to the development of complex aromatics in white wine than the hot, dry climates of the Maipo Valley or Cachapoal further north.
