Another cracking wine from the renowned LFE (Luis Felipe Edwards) stable in the Central Valley, Chile.

It was 1976 when Luis Felipe Edwards Sr. and his wife returned to Chile from Europe after several years, looking for new opportunities. They were instantly enamoured with the land later to become Luis Felipe Edwards Winery, a small property surrounded by the foothills of the Andes Mountains, with its own unique micro-climate. The following years saw the estate grow and grow, until, in 1995, Luis Felipe turned his back on selling grapes to bulk winemakers, and began bottling his own wines.
