About this winery

Arboleda, which means a grove of trees, is a tribute to the more than 1,450 hectares (3,583 acres) of native forest that surround its sustainably managed vineyards. Viña Arboleda was founded in 1999 by the Chilean vintner Eduardo Chadwick. The philosophy behind this project is to craft single-vineyard wines that reveal the purest expression of each unique terroir within its vineyards in the Aconcagua Valley.

Tasting notes

A wine defined by identity and purity. It is serious and elegant yet bold at the same time and has an earthy edge of underbrush and minerality due to the schist-type rock found on the property. It is aged in French barrels, mostly of second and third use. This is the wine that best expresses the characteristics of this terroir and is among the best examples of cool climate Pinot Noir in Chile. The wine achieves great balance and has an outstanding character due to its elegance, complexity and its typical chalky tannins.
