Undurraga Th Carignan is crafted from 100% Carignan grapes sourced from the Maule Valley, a premier wine-growing region in Chile known for its dry-farmed vineyards, which contribute to the intensity and concentration of the grapes. The wine undergoes a meticulous winemaking process with fermentation in stainless steel tanks to preserve its fresh fruit characteristics, followed by aging in French oak barrels. This aging process imparts subtle oak influences, enhancing its complexity and depth. Undurraga’s commitment to quality is reflected in the accolades this wine has received, with recognition for its robust flavor profile and excellent balance. The winery itself holds historical significance, founded in 1885, and remains a staple in the Chilean wine industry.
