Past Vintages of Maquis Lien
Maquis Lien is the result of our endeavor to produce a wine of excellence that captures the essence of the Viña Maquis estate, the unique place where it originates. This place is surrounded by the Tinguiririca River and the Chimbarongo Stream, which make of it almost an island in the heart of Colchagua Valley. Being surrounded by rivers contributes to Viña Maquis having a weather characterized by maximum temperatures in summer that are lower than those of our neighbors, allowing us to obtain fresher and more aromatic red wines. Throughout centuries, these two rivers have formed very well-drained alluvial soils which make it possible to produce concentrated grapes, of powerful and elegant tannins.
In such a special place has been born Maquis Lien, a red wine blend of 5 varieties: Syrah, Carmenere, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot and Malbec. This blend is very unique because of its origin, complexity, and diversity of varieties.
Each vintage is comprised of the finest fruit from the vineyards, the blend expressing the unique story of the vineyards and terroir from that year and captures the intensity and fruitness of the varietals. Maquis Lien is a distinctive wine that is sophisticated and stylish, with deep floral, fresh fruit and mineral aromas that fill the nose while juicy black fruit, river stones and savory spices envelope the palate. A "Super Chilean" wine, Maquis Lien combines power and supple fruit with elegant refined tannins.
