Somm Note

Winemaker Notes

Deep ruby red color, with a stunning array of blackcurrant, blackberry, and dried herbs that are layered with hints of black tea and black pepper. This Cabernet is a full expression of our vineyard, showing a real grip of acidity and mineral notes from our Los Lingues Estate. Tannins are solid and velvety, and come together with a silky and balanced finish.

Blend: 85% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Tempranillo, 5% Malbec, 5% Petit Verdot

Enjoy this wine alongside beef, roast duck or lamb based plates.

Professional Ratings

  • 90

    The 2017 Gran Reserva Cabernet Sauvignon was cropped from a warm and healthy year with grapes from their lower-altitude terraces in Los Lingues. It's not a 100% varietal wine, as it has small percentages of Malbec and Petit Verdot. It fermented with 50% uncrushed grapes to produce a semi-carbonic maceration, aiming to keep some extra freshness. It matured in oak barrels for 16 months. It's fruit-driven and straightforward, clean and juicy. It has contained ripeness, keeping good freshness for the conditions of the year.

    Some bright red berries and flowers on the nose lead to a quite ripe palate that has plum and berry-compote flavors, delivering a mellow and lithe finish.

Koyle Winery Video

Viña Koyle was born from the tradition that the family Undurraga carry in their blood; a family dedicated to winemaking for more than 6 generations, started by Francisco Undurraga Vicuña in 1885.

In 2006, Alfonso Undurraga Mackenna bought the Los Lingues estate and immediately began with his son, Cristobal, to plant the mountains with red grape varieties, starting the story of Koyle Family Vineyards. Koyle places their greatest effort on the expression and understanding of the vineyard. It is based on 3 pillars: man, place and environment. It is through a Biodynamic approach that they have found the best way to get intimately close to the expression of nature. Through achieving balance, unique wines are obtained that express the harmony found in unifying the cosmic and terrestrial world. The deep respect of the ecosystem, natural cycles and the dedication of human work are used to achieve these wines of excellence.

A noble variety bestowed with both power and concentration, Cabernet Sauvignon enjoys success all over the globe, its best examples showing potential to age beautifully for decades. Cabernet Sauvignon flourishes in Bordeaux's Medoc where it is often blended with Merlot and smaller amounts of some combination of Cabernet Franc, Malbecand Petit Verdot. In the Napa Valley, ‘Cab’ is responsible for some of the world’s most prestigious, age-worthy and sought-after “cult” wines. Somm Secret—DNA profiling in 1997 revealed that Cabernet Sauvignon was born from a spontaneous crossing of Cabernet Franc and Sauvignon Blanc in 17th century southwest France.

Colchagua Valley Wine

Rapel Valley, Chile

View all products

Well-regarded for intense and exceptionally high quality red wines, the Colchagua Valley is situated in the southern part of Chile’s Rapel Valley, with many of the best vineyards lying in the foothills of the Coastal Range.

Heavy French investment and cutting-edge technology in both the vineyard and the winery has been a boon to the local viticultural industry, which already laid claim to ancient vines and a textbook Mediterranean climate.

The warm, dry growing season in the Colchagua Valley favors robust reds made from Cabernet Sauvignon, Carmenère, Malbec and Syrah—in fact, some of Chile’s very best are made here. A small amount of good white wine is produced from Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc.
