Epu

2019-2023

Red

Puento Alto

Epu is the perfect introduction to the exclusive and harmonious world of Almaviva.

The second wine from the prestigious Almaviva, Epu comes from young vines located on the exceptional soil of Puente Alto. It reveals a ripe and expressive nose, marked by aromas of red pepper, blackberry, blackcurrant and fine spices brought by oak aging. The 2023 vintage, fresher than average, is distinguished by a remarkable balance and beautiful freshness. On the palate, this medium to full-bodied wine offers velvety tannins, a delicate texture and a lot of finesse.

Epu is ideal for discovering the elegance of Almaviva without entering the “grand cru” range, while taking advantage of the Andean region and the delicacy of Bordeaux.

Notes

◊ Nose: Aromas of blackcurrant and red fruits dominate at first, before giving way, after stirring, to delicate and subtle notes of vanilla, earth and fine herbs
◊ Palate: Juicy attack, fine texture and silky tannins. Evolution leaves an impression of balance, roundness and pleasure at the end of the mouth.

Almaviva

epu preserves the flagship characteristics of the prestigious South American Almaviva

Almaviva is a prestigious estate emblematic of Chilean viticulture, the result of an alliance between Baroness Philippine de Rothschild and the Guilisasti family, owners of Viña Concha y Toro. Located in the heart of the Maipo Valley, on an exceptional land at the foot of the Andes, the estate combines Bordeaux know-how with the richness of the Chilean soil. Since its creation in 1997, Almaviva has established itself as a symbol of luxury and excellence embodying the elegance, finesse and power of the Grand Cru wines of the New World.
