About this wine
Manso de Velasco is the flagship Cabernet Sauvignon from Miguel Torres Chile, sourced from a historic vineyard in the Curicó Valley planted in 1900. These centenarian vines produce low yields of highly concentrated grapes, resulting in a wine of exceptional depth, complexity, and elegance. Meticulous aging in French oak barrels imparts refined tannins and notes of dark fruit, tobacco, and subtle spice. This wine represents the pinnacle of Chilean viticulture.
A powerful, sophisticated red wine that showcases the true potential of Chilean Cabernet Sauvignon; a must-try for any serious wine lover.
