Undurraga Terroir Hunter – Valle de Maipo Cabernet Franc 2023

Venture into Chilean terroir with this expressive Terroir Hunter Cabernet Franc 2023 from Undurraga — a standout in their prestigious “T.H.” range. Sourced from the carefully selected Catemito vineyard in Maipo, vines thrive on sandy-clay soils with abundant gravel, benefiting from cooler diurnal swings that preserve freshness and aromatic intensity.

On the nose, expect entrancing aromas of ripe blackberries and dark cherries woven with cedar, spice, violets, graphite, and an herbal lift. The palate is structured and refreshing, firm tannins frame a textured core of dark fruit, balanced by harmonising minerality and a clean finish. Crafted with 85% Cabernet Franc and 15% Merlot, the blend adds softness without compromising character.

Undurraga’s Terroir Hunter series,  led by winemaker Rafael Urrejola,  is known for its environmental stewardship and minimal intervention philosophy, allowing pure vineyard expression to shine.
