ALMAVIVA RED (2017)
In 1997, Baroness Philippine de Rothschild, Chairman of the Advisory Board of Baron Philippe de Rothschild S.A., and Don Eduardo Guilisasti Tagle, Chairman of Viña Concha y Toro S.A., sealed a partnership agreement with a view to create an exceptional Franco-Chilean premium wine called Almaviva.
Produced under the joint technical supervision of both partners, the first vintage achieved immediate international success upon its launch in year 1998.
Made from a blend of classic Bordeaux varieties – in which Cabernet Sauvignon predominates – Almaviva is the result of a felicitous encounter between two cultures. Chile offers its soil, its climate, and its vineyards, while France contributes its winemaking savoir-faire and traditions.
The result is an exceptionally elegant, powerful and complex wine. Its launch was a major milestone in the development of Chilean wines, both in Chile itself and in the international market.

750ML
The famous critic James Suckling on his last visit to Chile in April 2019, and after having tasted more than 1,200 Chilean wines, recognized with 100 points Almaviva 2017 describing it as a wine with “aromas of blackberry leaves and iodine are wild and exotic here with mussel shells and earth underneath. Full-bodied, tight and chewy with powerful tannins that show muscle. It’s structured and powerful. Dense and very, very deep”
Made from a blend of classic Bordeaux grape varieties – Cabernet Sauvignon, which predominates, Carménère and Cabernet Franc, to which Merlot and Petit Verdot were subsequently added – Almaviva is the best of both worlds. Chile offers its soil, climate and vines, while France contributes its winemaking know-how and traditions. The result is a wine of exceptional power, complexity and ageing potential. Its launch marked a major milestone in the development of Chilean wines, both in Chile and on the international market.
