Chile has long held a special place in the world of wine, and Viña Sutil is a name that consistently stands out. Located in the heart of the Colchagua Valley, Viña Sutil was founded by Juan Sutil and brought to prominence by winemaker Diego García de la Huerta. With a sharp eye for site selection and a deep understanding of Chile’s diverse climates, the winery has built a portfolio that captures the richness and complexity of the region’s terroir.

The range of wines produced by Viña Sutil is broad yet cohesive—each bottle expressing elegance, balance, and a clear sense of place.

Crisp Whites with Character

For those who enjoy refreshing whites, Viña Sutil offers standout options. The Reserve Sauvignon Blanc (2024) is zesty and vibrant, sourced from Colchagua and Curicó Valleys. It bursts with tropical fruit, citrus, and herbal notes, making it an easy-drinking yet sophisticated choice.

Equally compelling is the Grand Reserve Chardonnay (2022). This wine balances ripe tropical flavours like banana and pineapple with a creamy mouthfeel and hints of toasty oak. It’s generous without being overwhelming—a well-crafted, food-friendly Chardonnay.

Carmenere and Cabernet, the Chilean Way

Carmenere may be Chile’s signature grape, and Viña Sutil handles it with finesse. The Reserve Carmenere (2023) is smooth and approachable, offering notes of blackcurrant, plum, and spice. Meanwhile, the Grand Reserve Carmenere (2020) digs deeper, with added layers of cedar, mocha, and dark fruit, framed by silky tannins.

On the Cabernet front, the winery delivers structured, full-bodied expressions. The Limited Release Cabernet Sauvignon (2019) stands out with its spicy edge, ripe black fruit, and firm structure. It's bold yet polished. The Grand Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon (2022) is slightly more fruit-forward, showcasing a rich mix of red berries, oak, and balanced tannins.

Premium Blends That Impress

For wine lovers looking to explore something more layered, Viña Sutil’s premium blends are well worth the attention. The Acrux Premium (2020) is a complex red that combines blackcurrant, cherry, nutmeg, and pepper with a refined finish. It’s elegant, aromatic, and expressive.

Then there’s the Mixtio Icon (2018)—a bold blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Carmenere. This wine is all about depth and spice, offering notes of red fruits, black pepper, and robust tannins. It finishes long and smooth, making it ideal for special occasions or cellaring.
