Le Dix de Los Vascos 2018

Le Dix de Los Vascos 2018 is a polished Chilean red crafted with the care and precision usually reserved for Bordeaux Grand Cru wines. From the cooler part of Colchagua, it combines ripe fruit, elegance, and fine structure, making it one of the most distinguished bottlings from Los Vascos.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, Le Dix shows a deep, concentrated colour that hints at its depth and intensity. The nose is layered and refined, offering dark fruit, subtle spice, and well-integrated oak notes that add complexity rather than overpowering the wine. On the palate, it is supple yet structured, with silky tannins, fresh balance, and a long, harmonious finish. The wine’s carefully managed extraction and French oak ageing give it both finesse and ageing potential, and it should continue to develop beautifully with further bottle maturation.

Production
Le Dix comes from Los Vascos’ estate in the cooler zone of Colchagua, where the vineyards benefit from Mediterranean conditions and the natural cooling influence of the Pacific Ocean. The grapes are hand-harvested and carefully selected before destemming, then fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. Gentle remontage is used during maceration when needed to achieve soft tannin and colour extraction, followed by natural malolactic fermentation in tank and 18 months in French oak barrels, 60% new.

Food & Serving
This is an excellent match for grilled red meats, roast lamb, game, and rich dishes with herbs or peppery sauces. Serve at around 16-18°C, and decanting for 1-2 hours is recommended to let the wine fully open, especially in its youth.

Producer
Los Vascos is one of Chile’s best-known wine estates, located in Colchagua and long recognised for its premium Cabernet Sauvignon-based wines. With its coastal vineyards and strong link to quality-focused winemaking, the estate has earned an important place in the region and is especially noted for producing wines of finesse, balance, and aging potential.
