Cellar for up to 10 years. No need to decant before serving. Norwegian entrepreneur Alexander Vik founded his namesake winery in 2004 to realise his dream of making world-class wine in Chile’s Millahue Valley. To achieve his vision Vik teamed up with top winemakers and grape growers including Patrick Valette who cut his teeth making wine in Napa Valley and at some of Bordeaux’s leading chateaux. Today the estate has some 900 acres of vineyards with the best quality fruit used for their own bottlings and the remainder sold on to other wineries. Milla Cala is a stunning Bordeaux blend composed of Cabernet Sauvignon, Carmenere, Merlot, and Syrah. The wine takes its name from the Millahue or “Place of Gold” Valley where the grapes are sourced. Yields are kept very low to maximise quality, and in the winery the young wine is matured in French oak barrels for 21 months. The wine is then bottled and aged for another three years before it is deemed ready for release. Luscious cassis, blackberries and cherries characterise the nose while the first sip reveals a bold full body, smooth tannins and a well-built structure. Hints of blackcurrant, dried herbs and cigar box spice linger on the palate, making this a great match for red meat dishes.
