VIÑEDO CHADWICK

Viñedo Chadwick was the passion project of Alfonso Chadwick Errázuriz, who bought the 300-hectare Viña San José de Tocornal estate in 1942 to pursue his love of wine and polo. His son Eduardo Chadwick, recognised the potential of this unique terroir and convinced his father to convert his beloved polo field into vineyards. In 1992 it was planted to Cabernet Sauvignon and Viñedo Chadwick was created to honour the memory of the late Don Alfonso Chadwick Errázuriz with an Ultra Premium red wine.

Located in the hills of the Alto Maipo Valley, at 650m above sea level Viñedo Chadwick is managed using sustainable farming practices. The cool morning breezes blowing down from the mountains, row orientation and moderate daytime temperatures allow the grapes to ripen to perfection while preserving their fruit intensity and acidity.

Since its inaugural release, Viñedo Chadwick has consistently received high praise and recognition, including being Robert Parker’s highest-rated Cabernet Sauvignon from Chile for five consecutive vintages and coming first in the famous 2004 Berlin tasting. The wine shows generous aromas of blueberry and dark cherry, licorice and bitter chocolate. Fine-grained tannins and depth ensure that this elegant wine will age beautifully for many years to come.
