Description

In the spirit of Global Studies, enjoy this wonderful case of Chilean Wines. With its Mediterranean climate and volcanic soils, Chile is where some of the most famous Bordeaux chateaux first ventured into winemaking abroad. This case of 8 reds and 4 whites focuses on what Chile does best - Sauvignon Blancs with a crisp New World profile similar to those found in New Zealand or South Africa, rich Cabernet Sauvignons that strike a refined balance between the fruit-forward style of California and the restrained elegance of Bordeaux, and earthy Carmenere, a Chilean specialty. Though increasingly well-known, Chilean wines still offer some of the best bang for the buck in the wine world. If you're new to Chilean wine, this case will introduce you to some great high-quality bargains; if not, well, you probably already know that!
