Wine from Curico Valley
Filter
Curico Valley is known for its diversity, with more than 30 grape varieties available since the mid-1800s in this region. Curico Valley is located in the South of Santiago, Chile. This region began its winemaking industry when Spanish producer, Miguel Torres, came to generate foreign investments from wine production.
Curico Valley has microclimate conditions. Hot days and cool nights in Curico Valley promote great soil conditions for wide varieties of grapes to grow. Among the many types of grapes, the Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Carmenere, Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay and Sauvignon Vert are popular in the region. The soil of Curico Valley provides the touch of chocolate in Carmenere grape wines and aroma of coffee in Cabernet Sauvignon. Curico Valley developed a practice of dropping grapes on the ground to intensify the flavor. Up to this day, Curico Valley is one of Chile’s main winemaking regions.

Vina La Ronciere 'Piedras Magicas' Idahue Estate Carignan is made from 100 percent Carignan.
Piedras Mágicas is hand-selected from small blocks in the Idahue vineyard based on specific soil compositions and microclimate characteristics. The final blend is comprised mainly of Carignan and complemented by other varieties in small proportions determined by vintage.
Located 15 miles from the Pacific Ocean, La Ronciere’s ambitious 500 acre Idahue Estate is their vision for the future. Prevailing coastal breezes, abundant sunshine, and rolling hills of ancient soils culminate in a privileged climatic and geological landscape. Years of research and a forward-looking approach drove the successful effort that saw Licanten granted D.O. status in 2018.
This wine displays a deep red color and offers aromas of black- berry, plum and floral notes. A complex palate of black fruits combine with pleasing notes of vanilla. Its volume and silkiness stand out. Juicy tannins and persistent acidity retains balance and elegance.

Pulled from a Gentleman's cellar, all wines from this cellar have been purchased by the owner either from the importer or direct from winery. They stayed in his cellar until being moved to the Timeless Wines warehouse.
Poggio Nardone Brunello di Montalcino is made from 100 percent Sangiovese Grosso.
The rich nose displays scents of spices combined with aromas of small red ripe fruits, blackberry and blueberry.
Well structured, determined and elegant, with round and silky tannins. Very nice finish.
Alcoholic fermentation was done in tank, malolactic fermentation in oak barrels. Wine was then aged for 3 years in French oak barrels.
Review:
Powerful and classic, it alternates in the best way the floral features of magnolias, gardenias and hawthorn with fruity notes reminiscent of plums, pressed blueberries and lemon juice. Medium-full body, smooth and relaxed in the sip, it closes harmonious and balanced. How beautiful! Better from 2024.
