ZGM, the German-based international wine producer, has introduced a new Chilean brand, initially to the UK market.
The wine for Viña Zamporia is sourced from the Coquimbo region, one of the most northerly in Chile. There are three varieties: Sauvignon Blanc, Carmenère and Shiraz. The company says that this, its latest launch, is part of a £4.8 million investment.
The Sauvignon Blanc is said to give classic, crisp, gooseberry flavours, while the Carmenère has juicy, black fruit and spices and the Shiraz displays black olives and herbs.
