Description

Miguel Torres Santa Digna Cabernet Sauvignon Rose is a wine produced by Miguel Torres Chile in the Valle Central region of Chile. It is a full-bodied and deep-coloured rosé. This is a great food wine.

Familia Torres Wines first acquired a small winery in Curicó, in the Chilean Central Valley, in 1979. It was the first foreign company to back Chilean vineyard production. After almost thirty years, those original 100 hectares have turned into 445 hectares of vineyards owned by the company itself. The excellent climate conditions for cultivating grape vines, with great temperature differences between night and day and lands free of grape phylloxera, have contributed to the fact that sublime wines are being made in lands from where one can view the greatness of the Andes, crowned by snow and noble beauty. As of 2010, Miguel Torres Chile is directed by Miguel Torres Maczassek, a fifth-generation Torres winemaker who moved to Chile with his family to maintain the tradition and passion for winemaking that the Torres family has demonstrated for over a hundred years.

Compared to more traditional rosés, Miguel Torres Santa Digna Cabernet Sauvignon Rose is a wine of unmistakable personality: original, young and nonconformist. Its stylish charm is the result of careful vinification of the Cabernet Sauvignon variety, during which only a short 4 hour contact is allowed between grape skins and juice. No oak ageing. This is a well-crafted wine that combines the elegance and structure of Cabernet Sauvignon with the freshness and charm of a rosé.

The name Santa Digna was given to the crosses marking the district boundaries of a land. These crosses served to delimit territories and symbolised good fortune and protection for those who were leaving for other climes.

This wine is suitable for vegetarians and vegans.
