VIÑA MAIPO RESERVA<br />

MERLOT 2009<br />

Rapel Valley<br />

Here’s a great Merlot to go with<br />

the grilled steaks and gourmet<br />

sausages. This one features tons<br />

of red fruit, spice box and<br />

blackberry aromas. Dry with an<br />

abundance of fruit and oak<br />

in perfect balance, as each<br />

element is strong enough<br />

to completely complement the<br />

other. Medium bodied with<br />

a substantial, fruit-and-oakinfused<br />

finish.<br />

Foreign<br />

Bodies<br />

Starting in the 1980s,<br />

international winemakers<br />

began actively investing<br />

in Chilean operations.<br />

Among those big names<br />

are Spain’s Miguel Torres,<br />

and France’s Rothschild<br />

and Lapostolle. Where the<br />

Chileans first travelled<br />

the world and brought<br />

European wine grapes<br />

home, now European<br />

producers are setting<br />

up properties in Chile to<br />

make wines themselves.<br />
