Colchagua Valley hakkında
Colchagua lies to the south of Maipo, in the Rapel region, and is one of Chile's leading red-wine valleys. Carménère does especially well in its warm, dry summers, and Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah are also planted.
Apalta, a horseshoe-shaped amphitheatre of granite hills, is the best-known sub-area and is home to some of the country's most expensive reds.
