Caballo Loco Grand Cru Maipo is an exceptional single-terroir red wine from Viña Valdivieso, sourced exclusively from some of the oldest vines in the Maipo Valley, one of Chile's most storied and prestigious wine-growing regions. Inspired by the French Grand Cru system, this wine celebrates the unrepeatable character of its origin, crafted from a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc grown in conditions that cannot be replicated anywhere else in Chile . Why You'll Love It The Maipo Valley is Chile's most celebrated red wine region, a warm, Andean-influenced valley just south of Santiago with a long history of producing world-class Cabernet Sauvignon. Caballo Loco Grand Cru Maipo captures the very best of this exceptional terroir, combining the depth and structure of old-vine Cabernet Sauvignon with the aromatic lift and complexity of Cabernet Franc. The result is a wine of real power, elegance, and a sense of place that sets it apart from anything else in the Valdivieso portfolio. Vineyard & Production Grapes are hand-harvested from a specific block of old vines within the Maipo Valley, selected for the uniqueness and quality of their terroir, and aged in French oak barrels to develop perfect balance and complexity. The wine is crafted using the same philosophy as the original Caballo Loco, a progressive blending approach inspired by the solera method used in sherry production, combining the current vintage with previous editions to build extraordinary layers of depth. Bottled at 14.5% ABV. Tasting Notes Pronounced aromas of mint and black fruits on the nose, complemented by a mild earthy complexity. The palate reveals warm notes of cooked berries, raisin, and fig, with velvety tannins and a firm structure leading to a persistent, elegant finish. Perfect Pairings An outstanding partner for beef, lamb, and game dishes with rich, hearty sauces. Also excellent alongside aged hard cheeses and slow-cooked red meat dishes. Grape Varieties Cabernet Sauvignon 70%,
