Moretta Carigno del Maule 2017
About the wine
- Winemakers Natalia Poblete and Maria Jose Ortuzar were introduced to Naked Wines by the sister of Connie Schwaderer.
- These wines have lots of character which speaks of the Terroir where they come from and the hard work carried out by their creators.
- On the nose we find abundant notes of raspberry and cherries, extremely floral and fresh, notes of tobacco are appreciated as a sign of evolution in the bottle. In the mouth it is a very fruity wine, fresh and consistent with the nose.
- It has an intense acidity that prolongs its sensation in the mouth. Firm tannins with character, give layers and an interesting vertical structure to this Carignan.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Natalia Poblete
-
When our Wine Guy Ray came back from his epic discovery trip to South America, there was only one person he wanted to talk about… Natalia Poblete. A rising star of Chilean wine, she’s earned a burgeoning reputation in her country for her beautifully complex artisan wines. And she was even named Chile’s Young Winemaker of the Year in 2018.
-
We first tasted Natalia’s kit way back in 2019. It made us stop in our tracks and think ‘ooh, we could be onto something special here’. Fast forward to February 2023 and we asked her if she could knock-up a super-duper-delicious Chilean Merlot for our Angels. One sip and Ray got the little butterflies in his stomach. It was that good.
-
She’s a super-cool lady too, a bit like a Chilean version of Nina Stocker or Serena Cordero, with an incredible passion for her craft and quiet confidence in her own talent. We feel like we’ve reconnected with a long-lost member of the Naked family. And we’re so lucky to have crossed paths with Natalia when we did, because give it another few years and the whole world will be clamouring for her wines.
