How often can you purchase a wine with the name Lafite-Rothschild on the bottle for under $10? Not often, unless you take a trip down to South America and visit their vineyards in Chile. It’s here that we found the two sibling estates of Las Huertas and Los Vascos. One of the oldest vineyards in Chile, Las Huertas traces its roots to approximately 1750 as the original vineyard of Miguel Echenique. In the 1980’s the vineyards were purchased by the Lafite-Rothschild family and both Las Huertas and Los Vascos quickly became two of the top selling wines from South America. Red fruits, pepper, cedar and tobacco on the nose with ultra-fine tannins and subtle berry and smoked bacon on the finish. Amazing value…It’s a Lafite-Rothschild Cabernet for under $10 a bottle!

“Amazing value from the Chilean vineyards of the Lafite-Rothschild family. Deep and intense with big aromas of red fruits, plums and dark chocolate with lively tannins, nice structure and excellent concentration.” The Wine Buyer, 91 Points
