A tribute to Manso de Velasco, Governor of Chile during the colonial period. A brave, enterprising man, known for his strength on the battlefield, and founder of the city of Curico, where these vines grow. The Finca Manso de Velsaco estate is exclusively given over to Cabernet Sauvignon, which produces this intense, deep-coloRed Wine. This wine is made using only grapes from vines planted in 1900.

In the deep, slightly rocky and sandy soils, the old Cabernet Sauvignon vinestocks produce limited quantities of grapes that show the typical characteristics of the variety. The organic and dry-farmed vineyard functions as its own ecosystem. Many of the sizable holes in the trunks of the oldest vines have become nests for birds that protect the vineyard from disease and pests.
