In the early 1900's Manuel Galan Nilo came to Molina as the new doctor of the village. A few years later in 1914 he bought his first vineyard “Los Olivos” which marked the first steps of the family in the wine world. His youngest son Alvaro Galan Besoain became a respected wine broker in Chile after many years in the wine business. It was he who decided in 1991 to buy the current vineyards together with his sons in order to put their passion into practice. Alvaro, the eldest, is now general manager and his brothers Jorge and Francisco are oenologist and commercial manager respectively. The vineyards are close to the national park of Los Siete Tazas (The Seven Cups) where the river Claro created seven waterfalls with respective tubs (Tazas) over thousands of years. In this beautiful setting, the Galan family now produces some of the best wines in the region, which are exported to more than 20 countries.
Beautiful, bright yellow color. Exotic and slightly spicy nose with impressions of pineapple, passion fruit, banana, apple and a hint of vanilla. A fine acidity keeps the wine interesting and complements its creamy and soft character. The balanced structure with sufficient body results in a pleasant, finely toasted and long finish.
Beautiful, dark garnet red to ruby red color. Aromas of black currant, cassis and cherries mingle with spicy notes of pepper and tobacco complemented by noble impressions of leather, cedar and cocoa. Robust wine that combines power with elegance. In the finale, these impressions are confirmed and complemented by more toasty notes. Wonderfully long finish.
Beautiful yellow color. Remarkably aromatic nose with dusty aromas of citrus fruits, passion fruits, freshly cut grass and a fine touch of asparagus accompanied by more subtle hints of anise and vanilla. Fresh and luscious mouthfeel with a nice balance between fruit and wood aging. Long lasting finish with sufficient acidity teasing for more.
Beautiful, deep, dark and ruby red color. The nose is dominated by dried fruits and plums. But after waltzing we also discover black currants, spices, more roasted notes and a spicy pepper. Wine with a lot of body and a pleasantly soft character. Nicely roasted and juicy final.
Beautiful, dark, deep and intense color that is typical for this grape, turning magenta towards the edges. Also in the nose we mainly discover dark aromas. Blackcurrant, blackberry and dried red fruit. Also hints of tobacco, violet and cocoa emerge after rolling. Nicely ripe and supple character that culminates in a long, firm but pleasant final.
Brilliant ruby red color. Red and black fruit on the pleasantly ripe nose. Also in the taste we find hints of cherries, strawberries, plums and cassis. Wonderfully full but nicely dosed taste. In the second instance, more spicy notes also emerge. Pepper, a touch of cedar and hints of chocolate. Remarkably soft and fine tannins accompany the balanced finish.
This Chilean Médoc style can also be enjoyed with the same classic cuisine. Grilled red meat, roast beef, aged sirloin steak, lamb and Stroganoff beef.
Dark, ruby red color. Intense aromas of ripe red fruit such as red berries, cassis and cherries. Nice complexity with notes of dark chocolate, leather, tobacco and pepper.
