The estate is located in Puento Alto, along the northern bank of the Maipo river at the foothills of the Andes Mountains. It is situated in one of the best areas of the Maipo Valley for growing exceptional quality fruit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBesides running the family winery, Don Alfonso was a Chilean Polo Champion and he would practise his sport on the estate's Polo Field. In the spring of 1992 the polo field was planted with a selection of the best clones of Cabernet Sauvignon. The total 15 hectares is planted on soils of clay loam over a stone filled riverbed of alluvial origin. Yields are kept extremely low and at harvest the various blocks are hand-harvested separately and at different times. The aim at Viñedo Chadwick is to make an elegant wine with freshness and purity, showcasing the Maipo Valley at its highest level.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eViñedo Chadwick's second vintage made history in 2004, when the Berlin Tasting took place. The 2000 vintage of Viñedo Chadwick was placed first by an international jury, comprised of many of Europe's top wine writers, ahead of the most expensive and reputed wines of the Old World. This landmark tasting proved the quality and potential of this fine wine and has been repeated with similar results as far afield as Japan, Canada and Brazil.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlmost 20 years later, Eduardo Chadwick continues to pioneer the image of fine Chilean wine worldwide. A landmark year for Errazuriz was had in 2016 when renowned wine critic James Suckling awarded Viñedo Chadwick 2014 a perfect 100 points for this vintage, becoming the first Chilean wine to achieve this accolade.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"vinedo-chadwick","title":"Viñedo Chadwick 2016","description":"\u003cp\u003eViñedo Chadwick represents the Chadwick family’s long cherished desire to honour the memory of the late Don Alfonso Chadwick Errázuriz with an Ultra Premium red wine showcasing the ancestry, tradition, and expertise of the Chadwick-Errázuriz family for producing fine wines reflecting the family’s passion for excellence. The aim is to make an elegant wine with freshness and purity, showing the Maipo Valley at its highest level. Although Don Alfonso never saw the finished wine, he is remembered with every bottle of Viñedo Chadwick. Since its inaugural release Viñedo Chadwick has consistently received the highest praise and recognition throughout its entire history, including being Robert Parker’s highest-rated Cabernet Sauvignon from Chile for five consecutive vintages. The wine is matured for 22 months in French oak barrels (80% new, 10% used) and Stockinger foudres. On the nose subtle aromas of forest floor give way to a concentrated blend of fresh red fruit including raspberries, strawberries and red cherries, accompanied by hints of pastries, cloves, nuts and cedar. After a silky entry, the palate is dominated by fresh red fruit flavours that emerge with hints of tobacco and cassis. The complex flavours are pure and delineated. Fine-grained tannins offer a linear and seamless texture with great elegance and intensity that promise to delight for years to come.[#intro]The ultimate Chilean expression of Cabernet Sauvignon - Elegant, rich, complex, layered, fresh \u0026amp; tasty...[\/intro]\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Viñedo Chadwick","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40249573638211,"sku":"A16VINEDOCHADWICK","price":320.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0106\/1539\/0266\/products\/ChadwickBottle.jpg?v=1665079925"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0106\/1539\/0266\/collections\/Collection_Image_7a24a683-0a8f-4ba7-b8d9-653feda818c1.jpg?v=1665076379","url":"https:\/\/hic.wine\/collections\/vinedo-chadwick-maipo-valley.oembed","provider":"Hic!","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
