Emiliana Novas Stellar Selection Cabernet Sauvignon Syrah Carignan 2023, Maule Valley D.O., Chile: Emiliana's Novas Stellar Selection from Maule Valley is a seamless, full-bodied red wine blending Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah and Carignan with notes of wild cherry, red berry, savory herbs and earthy minerality. This dry, organic and vegan-friendly wine displays fine tannins and wonderful purity that make it thoroughly satisfying. Serve it at room temperature with herb-roasted leg of lamb as the wine's garrigue notes complement the rosemary and thyme, or pair it with grilled duck breast where the wine's balanced structure stands up to the rich meat. Winemaker Noelia Orts crafts this exceptional-value blend showcasing Chile's prowess with French varieties, sourcing organically grown grapes from the Maule Valley where old vines and diverse terroirs create wines of remarkable transparency and complexity. Emiliana is one of the world's largest organic wine producers and has been certified organic since 1998, pioneering sustainable viticulture in South America with biodynamic practices across all their estates.
