History
Don Maximiano Errázuriz founded Viña Errázuriz in 1870 when he planted the first French grape varieties in Chile's Aconcagua Valley. His initiative, creativity and belief that the best wines come from the best land has been passed down through subsequent generations and today Viña Errázuriz remains family owned by the Chadwick family. Working hand in hand with nature, the family and winemaking teams are constantly striving to produce great Chilean wines, produced in a sustainable, responsible way.

Regional information
The grapes for Max Carmenere come from Errazuriz's Max vineyards in Chile's Aconcagua Valley. Located close to Errazuriz's winery in Panquehue, the special conditions of these diverse soils mean the Carmenere grapes develop tremendous concentration of aromas and flavours resulting in a ripe and juicy red wine with great balance and softness.
Tasting notes
Chile produces some of the world's best Carmenère, and this is a brilliant example. Rich but elegant this red wine has black and red fruits, spicy pepper aromas and notes of chocolate and roasted coffee. Fresh yet delicate, with fine-grained tannins and a silky texture on the palate.

Grapes were handpicked and taken to the winery to be prepared for fermentation. The wine was then aged in French oak barrels for 1 year before release, resulting in beautiful integrated tannins and a soft gentle finish for this Chilean Carmenere.
