Deep and fresh blackberries and blueberries with tangy black-peppercorn, tar and dried-herb notes. Super-fresh and bright on the palate with lots of juicy, sour black cherries and plums. Velvety, sweet tannins are knit into the berry fruit before the long, linear and peppery finish. Polished and characterful. A dead-ringer for a cool-climate syrah. Drink or hold. ... More details

Rated 90 by Wine Advocate
The 2020 Ígneo was produced with an unusual blend of Petite Sirah and Petit Verdot from different zones of Chile and is ripe, balsamic and a touch medicinal, with 14% alcohol. It was harvested quite late and generously oaked. It is powerful, ripe and a bit oaky. 4,240 bottles were filled in November 2021.
Winery
The palate is persistent and dense with powerful tannins that are at the same time ripe and supple. The oak flavours are well integrated and the wine has a distinctive mineral or balsamic texture. The finish is Rich and lingering with great acidity and flavours of ripe fruit, graphite as well as hints of smoke, tobacco and chocolate.

Region: Valle Central

The Valle Central of Chile is one of the world's most fascinating and unique wine regions, being a New World region with a history which stretches back several centuries to the time of the first European settlers on the South American continent. Although those original settlers brought their vines across the ocean for the production of sacramental wine, the way they flourished on Chilean soil was not ignored. Over the centuries, the vineyards around the Maipo and Maule valleys grew and grew, and now the Valle Central is the most productive wine region of South America, producing many of Chile's most characterful and flavorful wines. Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot varietal grapes are grown and processed in huge quantities for the international market, but there are also many vineyards dealing with high quality Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay and Carmenere grapes which are constantly gaining attention and praise from critics and wine drinkers around the world.

Country: Chile

Chile has a long and rich wine history which dates back to the Spanish conquistadors of the 16th century, who were the first to discover that the wonderful climate and fertile soils of this South American country were ideal for vine cultivation. It has only been in the past forty or fifty years, however, that Chile as a modern wine producing nation has really had an impact on the rest of the world. Generally relatively cheap in price,Whilst being widely regarded as definitively 'New World' as a wine producing country, Chile has actually been cultivating grapevines for wine production for over five hundred years. The Iberian conquistadors first introduced vines to Chile with which to make sacramental wines, and although these were considerably different in everything from flavor, aroma and character to the wines we associate with Chile today, the country has a long and interesting heritage when it comes to this drink. Chilean wine production as we know it first arose in the country in the mid to late 19th century, when wealthy landowners and industrialists first began planting vineyards as a way of adopting some European class and style. They quickly discovered that the hot climate, sloping mountainsides and oceanic winds provided a perfect terroir for quality wines, and many of these original estates remain today in all their grandeur and beauty, still producing the wines which made the country famous.
