Santa Rita Triple C 2004

• Light & Fruity: Red wines that are more fruit-forward and lighter in tannin and body.
• Smooth & Supple: Medium bodied reds that go down easy, with smooth tannins and supple fruit.
• Earthy & Spicy: Wines where earthy and/or spicy dominate the flavors – typically medium to full body.
• Big & Bold: Full bodied wines that have concentrated fruit and are higher in alcohol and/or tannins. Some need age.

This superb wine is a blend of Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon and Carménère, three varieties originally from Bordeaux that have been carefully cultivated by Santa Rita. Triple C benefits from the best of both the Old and New World, combining the elegance of traditional grape varieties with state-of-the-art New World techniques. The specially selected grapes are grown at Santa Rita’s Alto Jahuel Estate in Maipo Valley, Chile, approximately 40 miles from Santiago. Triple C represents a new style in Chilean winemaking, becoming a true expression of Chilean nature; complex and abundant.

Blend: 55% Cabernet Franc, 30% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Carménère
