Viña Echeverria No es Pituko Cabernet Franc 2023

ctive in Chilean agriculture, grape growing, and winemaking since 1740, the Echeverria family established their current vineyards and winery in 1923 on the outskirts of Molina, a town in the Curicó Valley. Here, they cultivate grapes from French pre-phylloxera rootstocks across their 80 hectares of vineyards. Originally focused on bulk wine production, the winery shifted in 1990 to producing high-quality wines for export.

In the following years, Echeverria became one of the few boutique wineries to emerge from Chile and the first family-owned Chilean winery to sell wine at Harrods in London. Their No Es Pituko line features "nothing added" wines—wild-fermented, free of additives, including sulfites, and bottled unfiltered and unfined.

The wine has an intense cherry color with a slightly cloudy hue. On the nose, it offers vibrant aromas of black cherry and fresh plum. The palate is fresh and persistent, with silky, soft tannins and a lush floral character that blends seamlessly with ripe raspberry notes.
