Chile: Back to the future

International Trophy Red Bordeaux Varietals under £15 - Indomita, Cabernet Sauvignon Gran Reserva, Maipó Valley, Chile 2014 (14%)

Since 2005, this wine has been made from a single-vineyard lot in the coastal area of Chile’s Maipó Valley, in what the Indomita team describes as a ‘heavenly spot with rolling hills’.

International Trophy Dry Riesling under £15 - Viña Leyda, Single Vineyard Neblina Riesling, Leyda Valley,Chile 2013

According to Viña Leyda winemaker Viviana Navarrete, it owes much to the qualities of the valley which gives the producer its name, and in whose early development the company was instrumental.

International Trophy winner Dry Aromatic under £15 - El Esteco, Amaru High Vineyards Torrontés, Calchaquí Valley, Salta, Argentina 2014 (13.5%)

El Esteco was also the most awarded Argentinian winery in last year’s Decanter World Wine Awards – and the success in both years is a significant advance in the estate’s mission to create awareness about the Calchaquí Valley’s unique natural attributes.
