Somm Note

Winemaker Notes

Enclave is a wine with a deep and dark red color, with aromas of red fruits such as plums and cherries, with hints of cassis, white pepper, moist earth, and something of black fruits. It has a very interesting aromatic complexity. On the palate it is an elegant wine, with good structure, firm and silky tannins at the same time. Has a

long persistence. This blended wine offers different layers of flavors. In them, the firm tannins of the Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot, the softness and complexity of the Carménère and the elegance of the Cabernet Franc. This mix allows Enclave to have a high ward potential, between 10 to 15 years.

Blend: 88% Cabernet Sauvignon, 4% Petit Verdot, 5% Carménère, 3% Cabernet Franc

    Their top Cabernet from Maipo, the 2015 Enclave Cabernet Sauvignon is from a warm and dry year, despite which the wine has 13.5% alcohol. The overall sensation is quite ripe, coupled with some notes of fountain pen ink, tempera paint, licorice and a touch of leather, with a classical palate that feels more like a Bordeaux than a Maipo. It kind of made me laugh when winemaker Felipe Toso told me someone had made that same comment to him.

    Very ripe and rich with plum character. A big and oaky cabernet that's got a harmony in spite of the almost monolithic tannins.

Vina Ventisquero Winery Video

Ventisquero began making wine in 2000. Today, the winery is led by a young, creative team of entrepreneurs who guide us to a single purpose: creating distinctive, high quality wines. They look for innovative ways to communicate with their target audience and to market our products around the world.

Under the guidance of head winemaker Felipe Tosso, the winery was built in the Coastal Maipo Valley, where grapes for their first wines were produced. Three years later, they ventured into the Casablanca Valley and the prestigious Apalta Valley, the source today for Vina Ventisquero's premium wines.

With estate-owned vineyards in Chile's top wine producing areas – Coastal Maipo, Casablanca, Leyda and Colchagua – and extensive research to uncover the secrets of the country's unique terroir, Vina Ventisquero seeks to produce wines of the highest quality and consistency.

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.

The Maipo Valley is Chile’s most famous wine region. Set in the country’s Central Valley, it is warm and quite dry, often necessitating the use of irrigation. Alluvial soils predominate but are supplemented with loam and clay.

The climate in Maipo is best-suited for ripe, full-bodied reds like Cabernet Sauvignon (the region’s most widely planted grape), Merlot, Syrah and Carmenère, a Bordeaux variety that has found a successful home in Chile.

White wines are also produced with great prosperity, especially near the cooler coast, include Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc.
