Central Valley
The Central Valley region dominates the wine scene in Chile, accounting for over 80 percent of production. Made up of several sub-regions, including the Maipo Valley, Colchagua and the Casablanca Valley the region stretches for 400 kilometres from north to south and is home to some of the country's biggest producers. Its large size and variable topography present a broad range of climatic conditions, soils and styles. Vineyards are planted on coastal plains, in the foothills of the Andes and at rocky altitudes of up to 750 metres. As a result a diverse variety of grapes are planted across the region. Sauvignon Blanc, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah and Chardonnay all have homes here, as does Carmenere, Chile's flagship grape. Experimental and innovative producers are always seeking to develop new, cooler sites amongst the coastal areas and river valleys, resulting in plantings of Riesling and Viognier.

Malbec
Malbec is a red grape variety producing fruit with a dark,inky colour and robust tannin. In France the majority of the plantings can be found around the town of Cahors, in the south-west. These wines produce the darkest and most tannic expressions of the grape. In the New World, Argentina has proven itself to be at the forefront of Malbec production, and wines from here will have pure, dark-fruit and peppery, spicy character. Malbec is known for textural flavours of blackberry, plum, chocolate and tobacco.
