Founded in 1955 by the visionary Don Gonzalo Vial, Ventisquero has built a reputation for producing top-notch wines since 1998. With a philosophy focused on innovation and quality, the winery enlisted the expertise of renowned Chilean vinologist, Mr. Montes, to select the ideal grape varieties. Ventisquero now owns vineyards in seven prominent Chilean wine regions, including Maipo, Casablanca, Apalta, Lolol, Leyda, Peralillo, and Huasco (Atacama), and insists on using only its own grapes for its wines. With a deep respect for nature, Ventisquero employs sustainable practices such as limited water use, carbon offsetting, and habitat conservation.
The Yelcho Cabernet Sauvignon grapes underwent careful pre-fermentative maceration at low temperatures to enhance their rich colors and aromas. Fermentation took place in stainless steel tanks at temperatures between 26 and 28 degrees Celsius. After aging for ten months in French oak barrels, the wine was aged for a further six months in bottle.
Chilean wines are known for their diversity and refinement, and Yelcho Cabernet Sauvignon is no exception. This wine shines with a deep ruby red hue and treats the nose to aromas of raspberry, strawberry, and blackcurrant, enriched with subtle spicy and oaky notes. The flavor of Yelcho Cabernet Sauvignon is harmonious, with a perfect balance of fruit and oak, resulting in an impressive finish. Cheers to the finesse of Chile!
