Produced by Viñedo Chadwick, the wine comes from a small vineyard... planted on the former polo field of the Chadwick family in Puente Alto, at the foothills of the Andes. The estate was developed by Eduardo Chadwick of Viña Errázuriz, with the ambition of producing a world class Cabernet Sauvignon that could stand alongside the great wines of Bordeaux and California.
