Viña VIK, Millahue – Colchagua Valley (Chile) 2013

Oct 20, 2020

By Miranda Franco

 VIK is the flagship wine and the icon of the winery, a rich red blend of 67% Cabernet Sauvignon, 17% Cabernet Franc, 14% Carmenere, and 2% Merlot.  Sticking with the book analogies, VIK is the literary classic that will stand the test of time.  It has a riveting complexity, like a great classic book that challenges you.  The palate is graceful and expansive, unfolding with layers of blackberry, cassis, currant, and a hint of cigar wrapper.  The wine resonates with supreme freshness beside fine-grained tannins.  It conveys a timeless “Old World” elegance but retains the essence of the dynamic Chilean terroir.
