Errazuriz

Don Maximiano Errázuriz founded Viña Errázuriz Winery in 1870 in the Valle de Aconcagua where they have been producing quality wines for over 130 years. Located about 60 miles north of the capital city Santiago, Don recognized that this valley, with its cool, rainy winters and hot, dry summers, in combination with the influential Pacific Ocean breeze, was ideal for planting vines. Today, the tradition of quality lives on with Don Maximiano’s descendant Eduardo Chadwick, the fifth generation of his family to manage the Errázuriz vineyards. As an estate winery, their philosophy is to keep Errázuriz wines pure by using the finest winemaking techniques while still allowing the land to impose the greatest influence on the wines. Our Errázuriz reviews examine their full portfolio of wines from the entry level Estate line up to the top tier Icon wines, which include the highly regarded Kai, Maximiano Founder's Reserve and the Shiraz La Cumbre. While almost a dozen different varietals are utilized to produce the majority of their wines, our Errázuriz ratings illustrate that only Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah (Shiraz), Carmenere and Petit Verdot are used to create these top rated selections.
