Viña Errázuriz wines topped Robert Parker's list of Chilean wines for the second year running.

 


In first place came Viñedo Chadwick 2007, which received the highest score with 97 points and confirms its Parker position as Chile's best Cabernet Sauvignon.

 


Other Viña Errázuriz icon winners include third placed Don Maximiano 2007, at 94+ points and KAI 2007 with 94 points.

 


The three 2007 icon wines topped the table out of the 204 wines rated.

 

Managing director at Hatch Mansfield Agencies, UK distributor of Errazuriz wines, Patrick McGrath MW, said: "These excellent Parker point ratings bode well for the future of Viña Errázuriz and their new Don Maximiano Icon Winery winery, which opened at the end of last year.

 


"The Winery incorporates French oak fermenters, a temperature and humidity controlled barrel cellar and gravity flow throughout.

 

"This is where the Errazuriz Icon wines, will come to life," he added.

While the article reviewing Chilean wines was published by Robert Parker in his eponymous newsletter; the reviews and scores were written by Jay Miller, one of Mr. Parker's reviewers. Congratulations to Vina Errazuriz's Viñedo Chadwick 2007 in topping Mr. Miller's list of Chilean wines.
