Serendipia Cabernet Franc 2018
Market Price
To show you the value you're getting as an Angel...
We regularly benchmark a selection of our wines against up to three comparable wines on the market. The Market Price is based on the price of those wines.
What do we mean by benchmark? We taste them blind against our own wines, or we use our market knowledge (over 40 years between us) to set an industry standard Market Price.
If you buy one of our wines and disagree with the Market Price, or it's not your cup of tea, we'll add a credit to your account. For more info, see our FAQS.

About the wine
Dark cherry red in colour, it's juicy and fresh, with a soft toasty background
- My Serendipia Cabernet Franc is a terroir project, made by hand, on a human scale, with the least possible intervention - this is a very limited production of only 1,300 bottles. The fruit comes from the Las Quiscas vineyard, located in Peumo, in the heart of the Cachapoal Valley, recognized worldwide as one of the best terroirs in Chile.
- The Mediterranean climate, with dry summers, warm days and cool nights and winters with low temperatures, is ideal for the growth of Cabernet Franc with the perfect concentration of fruit and freshness. The harvest is decided by walking through the vineyard and tasting the grapes, with no more technology than the team's intuition.
- This wine has the very distinctive characteristics of Peumo, with hints of spices and herbs, but also of red fruits such as cherries, fresh fruit, wild blackberry, with fine tannin and with a nice amount of body. Dark cherry red in colour, it’s juicy and fresh, with a soft toasty background, and a lingering finish from 18 months of oak barrel ageing.
