Manso de Velasco

Miguel Torres is a Chilean wine producer established in the Curico Valley in 1979. Winery now produces millions of cases of wine per year after 40 years of significant growth, expansion and development. Miguel Torres is an expansion of Bodegas Torres, one of the largest, and most-recognized producers from Spain. Their fourth generation winemaker, Miguel Torres Carbó relocated from Spain to establish a winery with a commitment to innovation of the Chilean wine industry. The company was the first to introduce fermentation in stainless steel tanks as well as the use of French oak barrels for maturation and consequently, pioneered the industry in Chile.

This wine is a tribute to Manso de Velasco, Governor of Chile during the colonial period. A brave, enterprising man, known for his strength on the battlefield, and founder of the city of Curicó, where these vines are grown. The Finca Manso de Velsaco estate is exclusively given over to Cabernet Sauvignon, which produces this intense, deep-colored wine. This wine is made using only grapes from vines that are over 115 years old.

Intense dark ruby color. Delicious aroma with the classic notes of black fruit preserves and hints of leather. Great elegance on the palate, with harmonious fruitiness and spiciness, and long, soft tannins, complemented toward the finish with delicate notes of toasted bread.
