Siete Perros Garnacha Rosé

Curicó Valley

It may even seem that our little chihuahua Hanna looks a little smug, but deep down it’s because she knows that, sooner or later, everyone ends up liking her. And our Rosé is no different: it pleases even the most difficult ones with its vibrant freshness.

Made with naturally farmed grapes hand-picked from the Curicó Valley, this minimal intervention wine was pressed very delicately to preserve its beautiful light pink tones.
