Origin

Carta Vieja Gran Reserva Cabernet is produced in Chile, a country renowned for its high-quality wine production, particularly in the Central Valley region where Cabernet Sauvignon thrives.

Variety

This wine is made exclusively from the Cabernet Sauvignon grape variety, known for its robust structure and aging potential.

Production

The Gran Reserva Cabernet undergoes a careful vinification process including controlled fermentation and extended aging in oak barrels, which enhances its complexity and depth. The aging period typically lasts several months to years, contributing to its designation as a Gran Reserva.
