Description

A landmark wine and for Label Wines an exciting first from Chile, Clos de Lolol Tinto hails from the beautiful Lolol Valley in Colchagua — a region celebrated for its depth, structure and sense of place. Crafted by Hacienda Araucano, this is a wine that unfolds slowly, revealing its complexity layer by layer with poise and confidence. Aged for 18 months in a mix of first- and second-fill French oak, the blend brings together Syrah, Carmenère, Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon in a finely tuned composition. In the glass, it shows a deep, intense red colour. The nose is expressive and layered, opening with blackberry and black cherry, followed by tobacco leaf, cloves and warm spices, all framed by subtle oak influence. On the palate, the wine enters with authority — concentrated, broad and deeply flavoured. Dark fruits are carried by a supple yet structured tannin profile, giving the wine both power and finesse. There’s intensity here, but also balance, with a long, composed finish that reflects both careful winemaking and the strength of the Lolol Valley terroir. A natural match for game meats, braised red meats or richly spiced dishes like tagines, where its depth and structure really shine. Drinking beautifully now, yet built with the concentration and balance to evolve gracefully for another decade. A serious, elegant red that marks a compelling new chapter — one that rewards patience while offering plenty of pleasure today.
