About Culitos Cabernet Merlot 750ml - Taste & Features
Silky on the palate with ripe blackcurrant and plum up front, Culitos Cabernet Merlot 750ml balances soft tannins and a touch of spice for an easy, medium-bodied sip that finishes smooth and juicy. This is a classic Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot blend crafted for everyday drinking, with production aimed at highlighting fruit purity over heavy oak influence, and while the country of origin isn’t specified, it reflects a modern New World style. At 12.5% ABV, it’s versatile enough for weeknight dinners, and it really shines when you pour a glass alongside a grilled steak or nibble it with aged cheddar for an effortless, crowd-pleasing pairing.
Producer Information: Viña Requingua
Viña Requingua is a family winery rooted in Sagrada Familia in the Curicó Valley of Chile’s Maule Region, where estate parcels bridge cooler foothills and warmer benchland shaped by Andean nights and Pacific influence. The producer emphasizes careful vineyard selection, hand work, small-lot vinifications, and judicious barrel aging to preserve place and texture. Its portfolio connects the winery to classic Chilean varieties including Cabernet Sauvignon, Carmenère, Syrah, Merlot, Sauvignon Blanc, and Chardonnay, expressed across lines such as Toro de Piedra, Potro de Piedra, and Puerto Viejo, spanning Reserva, Gran Reserva, and limited releases. The result is structured reds and vibrant whites that speak clearly of Curicó’s diversity.
