Gold and Silver for Espíritu de Chile

Espíritu de Chile once again proved its high quality with an impressive result at Germany’s largest and most important wine competition: The 2005 Carmenère Gran Reserva achieved a gold medal, the Gran Reserva Merlot was honoured with silver.

Great potential, a complex structure and a full body: These were the main characteristics the panel experts attributed to this expressive Carmenère. The deep red wine also perfectly combines spicy notes and fine aromas of berries. The silver winning Merlot convinced the jury with its pleasant fruit, well-balanced tannins as well as with its complex structure.

The Espíritu de Chile Gran Reservas regularly attain top ratings in internationally renowned wine competitions. In 2008, wines of this range already received several Grand Gold and gold medals. All these acknowledgements for excellent wine quality have been achieved at an outstanding price/quality ratio.

5,343 wines and sparkling wines from 41 different countries applied for the different accolades at the MUNDUSvini challenge in 2008. The tasting was organized according to the strict rules of the OIV (Organisation Internationale de la Vigne et du Vin) and the Union Internationale des Oenologues (U.I.O.E., Paris). According to MUNDUSvini officials, this wine contest is the largest officially approved wine competition worldwide.
