Sierra Grande Merlot is a juicy, fresh, and wonderfully approachable red wine produced in the Curicó Valley of Chile. Crafted by an expert winemaking team with over two decades of experience partnering with Chilean growers, this bottling is designed to offer exceptional character, style, and everyday drinkability. Sourced from contrasting vineyard altitudes, it presents a beautifully balanced expression of Chilean Merlot focused on pure fruit purity.

Why You'll Love It

This wine stands out for its effortless balance, vibrant freshness, and soft, round profile. By blending crisp, crunchy fruit from high-altitude Andean slopes with warm, rich grapes from the valley floor, it strikes a perfect harmony between brightness and palate weight. Vinified entirely without oak intervention, it offers a clean, fruit-forward style with silky tannins that make it remarkably versatile and easy to enjoy.

Vineyard & Production

The fruit is sourced from two family-owned sites in Curicó. The Martin Family vineyard, situated 500 metres above sea level high in the Andes, benefits from cool mountain nights and rocky soils that yield vibrant, crunchy plum flavours. This is blended with fruit from the El Milagro Estate in the central valley, which contributes riper, fuller berries and plush tannins. Hand-harvested during the coolest hours of the day, the grapes undergo gentle, minimal-intervention fermentation in stainless steel to retain maximum freshness.

Tasting Notes

In the glass, it displays a bright ruby-purple hue. The nose opens with an inviting bouquet of ripe plums and dark cherries, layered with subtle notes of peppery spice and fresh tobacco leaf. On the palate, it is juicy, fresh, and smooth, offering soft red fruit flavours accompanied by a gentle touch of green pepper. Silky, gentle tannins frame the finish, leaving a clean and balanced impression.

Perfect Pairings

With its soft tannin structure and lively fruit character, this Chilean Merlot is a fantastic companion for everyday dining. It pairs beautifully with a juicy steak, savoury lamb casseroles, and herby sausages. It is also an excellent match for vegetarian dishes, such as a char-grilled vegetable lasagne, mushroom pasta, or mild semi-hard cheeses.
