From vineyard to bottle

The origin, grapes and craftsmanship behind this wine.

Chile's finest winery, paired with the quintessential Chilean grape: Cabernet Sauvignon. This grape originates in the renowned Bordeaux region. However, it was in serious decline there. The average wine drinker considered Cabernet Sauvignon too harsh and was completely unpopular. By chance, Cabernet Sauvignon grapes were planted in Chile by winemakers of European origin. Chile's perfect climate proved ideal for Cabernet Sauvignon: it is currently one of the most widely planted blue grape varieties in Chile. One sip of Santa Rita Heroes Reserva Cabernet Sauvignon immediately tells us why.

Santa Rita is one of Chile's oldest wineries, founded by Don Domingo Fernandez Concha in 1880. He drew inspiration from French viticulture, and this French influence is still evident in the wines today. Wine critics rave about the towering quality that Santa Rita imparts to its wines. Santa Rita stands for innovation, creativity, and purity—three aspects also found in this Cabernet Sauvignon. The grape vines are located in Central Valley. This region offers the best of both worlds: the protection of the Andes to the east and the cooling ocean to the west.

A Cabernet Sauvignon wine as it should be. No frills, no frills, no fuss. Pure and elegant. Perfect from the first sip. Our oenologists are falling over themselves to find something positive to say about Santa Rita Heroes Reserva Cabernet Sauvignon. As soon as you pop the cap off this bottle, you're hooked. You'll slowly but surely fall in love with the intense quality of Santa Rita. The aroma is majestic: you discover black currants and soft spices. A subtle, subtle pepper lingers delightfully on your nose. The taste is distinct. A soft bouquet unfolds easily on your tongue: dark fruit, soft plums, and delicate herbs. A feast for the senses.
