Vintages New Release Collection – January 24, 2026

CLOS DE LUZ MASSAL 1945 CARMENÈRE 2023 DO Valle de Cachapoal This wine comes from ungrafted vines planted in 1945. Heritage vineyard origins, yes, yet the wine reflects a truly modern style of Carmenère, showcasing freshness and ripeness alongside an unapologetically savoury herbal complexity. 94 points (Patricio Tapia, guiadescorchados.cl) Full-bodied & Smooth 11861 (XD) 750 ml $24.95 2

ENCIERRA PUQUILLAY CARMENÈRE 2022 Valle de Colchagua As Maipo is to Cabernet Sauvignon, Colchagua is to Carmenère. Though household names like Montes and Lapostolle may lead the way, the quality found across the region has raised Carmenère from near obscurity as an occasional blending wine to a world-class single-varietal expression. 91 points (Claire Nesbitt, jamessuckling.com) Medium-bodied & Fruity 44679 (XD) 750 ml $19.95 2 New at Vintages
