About
Tarapaca has a long tradition of producing high-quality wines that reflect the diversity and richness of Chilean terroir. Their Varietal Merlot is crafted to be approachable, balanced, and enjoyable on its own or with food.
Vineyards: The grapes come from carefully managed vineyards in Chile’s Central Valley. The region’s warm days and cool nights allow for slow, even ripening, resulting in concentrated, flavorful fruit with well-preserved natural acidity.
Winemaking: Grapes are destemmed and gently fermented in stainless steel tanks to preserve purity and varietal character. Partial oak maturation adds subtle complexity and texture without overpowering the fresh Merlot fruit. The result is a smooth, fruit-forward wine with elegance and balance.
Ideal with...
Tarapaca Varietal Merlot pairs beautifully with grilled meats, roasted poultry, pasta dishes, and semi-hard cheeses. Its soft tannins and fresh fruit profile make it versatile for both everyday enjoyment and special occasions. Whether served on its own or with food, this Merlot is a standout Chilean red.
