Wine Description:
AUMA, a tribute to winemaker Cristobal Undurraga's father, Alfonso Undurraga Mackenna, stands as one of Chile's finest Carmenère-led blends. This wine combines the richness of Carmenère with the ripe tannins of Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot. Cabernet Franc adds complexity with subtle lead-pencil aromas, while Merlot contributes spiciness, and Malbec lends a floral top note. After separate 24-month barrel aging for each grape variety, the blend matures for an additional nine months in a concrete egg before being bottled without filtration. The wine comprises Carmenère, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Malbec, Merlot, and Petit Verdot.

Wine Expert Note:

Koyle Auma is an exceptional wine that showcases the best of Chilean winemaking. This red wine is crafted from a blend of carefully selected grapes, resulting in a harmonious and complex flavor profile. On the nose, Koyle Auma offers enticing aromas of ripe blackberries, dark cherries, and plums, accompanied by hints of tobacco and cedar. These aromas are a prelude to the rich and velvety palate, where flavors of black fruits, such as blackcurrants and blackberries, take center stage. The wine's well-integrated tannins provide structure and balance, while the vibrant acidity adds freshness and liveliness. Koyle Auma is a full-bodied wine with a long and satisfying finish. It pairs wonderfully with grilled meats, hearty stews, and aged cheeses. This wine is best enjoyed at a slightly cooler temperature to fully appreciate its complexity and depth.
