About this wine
Las Veletas Cabernet Sauvignon & Cabernet Franc
Produced by Viña Las Veletas, this composed red blend brings together the depth of Cabernet Sauvignon with the aromatic lift and finesse of Cabernet Franc. Sourced from carefully managed vineyards in Chile's Colchagua Valley, the wine reflects the region's warm days and cooling influences, delivering ripeness without heaviness.
On the palate, concentrated dark fruit is layered with subtle herbal notes, gentle spice and finely structured tannins. The Cabernet Franc adds freshness and definition, giving balance and length to the finish. Confident and food-friendly, it pairs well with grilled meats, slow-cooked dishes or hearty vegetarian cooking.
