Description
VIK 2020 is a flagship red from one of Chile’s most ambitious estates, created with the goal of producing a truly world-class wine. Born from a meticulous search for exceptional terroir in Millahue, this cuvée reflects Vina Vik Winery’s signature blend of elegance, depth, and precision. Its story is closely tied to a modern Chilean icon—where innovation, sustainability, and fine wine come together.
Tasting Notes
In the glass, VIK 2020 is typically deeply coloured and intense, with the concentration and polish expected from a premium Colchagua Valley red blend. The nose offers layered aromas of dark berries, plum, cedar, graphite, spice, and subtle floral or herbal nuances, unfolding gradually with air.
On the palate, it is powerful yet refined, with ripe fruit, fine-grained tannins, and a fresh, well-integrated structure that gives the wine poise and length. Expect impressive complexity and a long finish, with the potential to evolve beautifully over the next several years, gaining further nuance and softness in bottle.
Production
The vines are rooted in Millahue, in the Colchagua Valley, an area known for its sun-filled days, cool nights, and varied soils that help produce grapes with concentration and balance. The estate was developed after extensive geological and climatic research to identify the ideal site, and the vineyards are farmed with a strong focus on sustainability and precision viticulture. VIK is known for its Bordeaux-inspired blends, with varieties such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Carménère, and Syrah playing key roles, while ageing takes place in French oak barrels produced by the estate itself using the Barroir technique, where local wood is used for toasting.
Food & Serving
This is an excellent wine for richly flavoured dishes such as grilled ribeye, roast lamb, venison, braised short ribs, or mushroom-based dishes with depth and umami. It also pairs well with aged hard cheeses and dishes with smoky or herbal accents. Serve at around 16-18°C, and decant for 1-2 hours if drinking young to allow the wine to open fully.
Producer
Vina Vik Winery was founded in 2004 by Alex and Carrie Vik, who set out to create one of the world’s finest wines through a combination of research, innovation, and terroir-driven winemaking. Their project brought together top experts in viticulture, geology, and climatology, leading them to the Millahue site, where vineyard planting began in 2006. The estate’s striking, futuristic winery was designed by Chilean architect Smiljan Radic, and under chief winemaker Cristián Vallejo—whose experience includes work at Château Margaux and in Napa—the winery has earned a reputation for producing some of Chile’s most distinctive premium blends.
