Part of one of Chile’s most distinctive wine stories, it reflects the house’s long tradition of preserving and blending its best reserve wines into something singular and memorable.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the glass, it shows an intense dark garnet color with violet reflections. The nose is powerful and layered, with aromas of black pepper, olives, and dark berries, all hallmarks of a Syrah-driven style. On the palate, the wine is generous and full-bodied, with a mouth-coating texture, fine-grained tannins, and a long, persistent finish. It already offers impressive depth, but its structure suggests it can continue to evolve well with a few more years in bottle.\n\nThe balance of ripe fruit, spice, and savory complexity gives it both immediate appeal and serious aging potential.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe wine is produced using open-tank fermentation with manual punch-downs to ensure a gentle, careful extraction. Fermentation is carried out at a controlled 28–30°C, followed by 21 days of skin maceration for added color, texture, and concentration. It is then matured for 24 months in French oak barrels, with 15% new oak, allowing the wine to gain complexity while preserving its expressive fruit and regional character.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood \u0026amp; Serving\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is an excellent match for juicy red meats, lamb, game, duck, rabbit, and richer fish such as tuna or salmon. Serve it at 16–18°C for the best balance of freshness and depth. Decanting for 1–2 hours is recommended, especially in its youth, to let the aromatics open fully and soften the tannins.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProducer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCaballo Loco is one of Chile’s most original and characterful wine projects. Its story began in the cellar in Lontué, in the Curicó Valley, where the team carefully stored the best reserve wines from older vintages for many years. In 1994, those wines came together unexpectedly, giving birth to a unique and highly distinctive cuvée that has since become a benchmark for the producer’s bold and unconventional style.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Caballo Loco","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54366789763409,"sku":"VDZ-10345489170768-52419774021968","price":38.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0874\/0614\/9969\/files\/caba02023.png?v=1784540527","url":"https:\/\/bottlehero.com\/products\/caballo-loco-limari-grand-cru-limari-2023","provider":"Bottle Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
