About the wine
Big and bold Old Vine Carignan from superstar Connie
- Hiding out in tiny vineyards off the beaten track, Connie champions old Chilean grape varieties - farming them in traditional ways and hand-picking the fruit using local labour to regenerate the local economy.
- Picking the best fruit from Old Vines in the Maule Valley, this wine is big, bold and concentrated.
- Ruby red, almost purple in the glass, the inky hues translate to juicy dark fruits on the palate. This is a big wine, with heaps of flavour.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Constanza Schwaderer
- Connie is a Chilean rebel. She got sacked from a big winery for leading a revolution against the cheap, mass-produced wine Chile was churning out.
- Hiding out in tiny vineyards off the beaten track, Connie champions old Chilean grape varieties - farming them in traditional ways and hand-picking the fruit using local labour to regenerate the local economy.
- Thanks to Angel support, she’s rented a big old winery and scaled up production. So instead of her juice ending up in million-litre vats, blended into supermarket plonk, she’s able to turn it into delicious high-quality wines that put Chile on the map.
