Tasting notes

"An intense, complex wine with a bouquet that transports you to the native forest of our terroir. Here the fresh notes and damp earth reveal an unfamiliar side of Carmenère, which, along with its pleasant freshness, can offer many layers of fine, well-balanced aromas, like fresh, ripe fruit, with notes of blackberries, prunes, blueberries and forest fruits. The Cabernet Sauvignon joins in with strawberries and raspberries, which combine with the cassis and floral notes of the Syrah to stimulate the mind."

Blend includes 41% Cabernet Sauvignon, 41% Carmenère, 10% Syrah and 1% Merlot.</p>

Under the direction of Alexander and Carrie Vik with Patrick Valette, a team of some of the most knowledgeable and passionate professionals came together with the singular mission to produce the best wine that the exceptional terroir at VIK vineyard could offer. The goal from inception has been to have VIK join the pantheon of the great wines of the world.

The vineyard location in Millahue (in the Mapuche language, “place of gold”) was selected after two years of intense scientific research and more than 4,000 meticulous deep-soil studies to find the ideal terroir to grow the best grapes, which would then express themselves in an exceptional wine. Climate conditions were taken under careful consideration; weather stations were installed and a team of scientists and wine agricultural experts intensely researched all elements of the terroir, including the diversity of exposures to the sun, wind, soil types and conditions, hydric flows, thermal amplitude and geographic orientation. All of these essential elements further determined the VIK vineyard location as the optimal location to grow the perfect grape. The vineyard consists of twelve expansive valleys situated on 11,000 acres of land. Varietals grown at VIK vineyard include Cabernet Sauvignon, Carménère, Syrah, Cabernet Franc and Merlot.

The team began planting the vines in 2006. Nearly a decade in the making, in 2015 VIK vineyard released its premier vintage, VIK 2011, followed by the debut of Milla Cala in 2016. The family of wines was joined during 2017 by La Piu Belle. Each wine offers its own distinct personality while still reflecting the holistic VIK philosophy.
