Winemaker Notes
This Carmenere has a richly fruity nose with hints of ripe cherry, strawberry jam and fresh plum infused with delicate notes of dark chocolate. A surprising palate with firm yet vibrant structure that leads to a sweet finish.

Aromas of spice, sandalwood and dried leaves accent herbal berry fruits, while this wine feels flush with plenty of pulp and weight. Berry, cassis and plum flavors remain full and fleshy across the jammy finish.
In 1951, Vicente Aresti Astica acquired the Bellavista Estate in Curicó, a renowned winegrowing valley, and started building a family tradition of excellence in winemaking with passion at the core of their philosophy.
Over half a century of meticulous work resulted in a tradition of high-quality wines that were the labels of choice of the most prestigious wineries at that time. The experience gained in making superior wines fueled Mr. Aresti’s motivation to start bottling and selling labels of their own. In 1999 and following major winery renovations and introduction of state-of-the-art technology, Viña ARESTI took the great leap forward into producing and exporting bottled wine. Aresti Winery is owned byACW, one of the most prestigious family-run wine operations in Chile. Nowadays ACW produces and sells various brands around the world. The foundations of Viña Aresti are the passion for excellence of its founder, Vicente Aresti Astica. After he passed, at 92, his daughters Begoña and Ana María Aresti López took over their father’s endeavor and persevere in the commitment they had learned from him. Viña Aresti, a company of the ACW, one of Chile’s most prestigious family winegrowing businesses, is located in Molina, in the Curicó valley, less than 200 km south of Santiago. New vineyards near the Claro river – Micaela, Peñaflor, and La Reserva – have been added to Bellavista, the original estate. The vineyards are situated in Curicó, Chile’s largest and most famous wine valley. With privileged climate, alluvial soil, a long dry season and a daytime/nighttime temperature differential of some 20ºC, this region offers the ideal conditions for the production of superior wines.
