Mancura Guardián: a line of heritage varietal wines
Mancura is a winery that seeks above all to preserve the Chilean wine heritage. And that is why, through its wines, it pays homage to the roots, traditions, and origins of Chile. Even its name pays tribute to the mythological character of the condor in the Andes, who, according to legend, appears at the heights of the mountains bringing with him the sun and the freshness of the sea, which allows one of the best conditions in the world to produce high-quality wines.
This is how, following this legend, Mancura is concerned with producing high-quality wines at an affordable price, which reflects our country and its nature. Wines that reach consumers who want to deliver a better world to future generations.
Among them is Guardian, a line that comes mainly from the Maule Valley, the valley with the longest winemaking tradition in Chile, recognized for its ancestral strains, centuries-old vines, and concentrated grapes.
The varieties that can be found in Maule are not particularly traditional, but they have been produced in these soils for hundreds of years and have become an authentic wine heritage that does not exist in other parts of the world and that is giving Chile a new position in the world of wine. With them, Mancura Guardian seeks to care for and develop this noble origin, bringing them closer to the consumer.
This unique portfolio is made up of a País, with pleasant and juicy acidity; a Carignan, full-bodied and structured; two varieties that have a culture strongly rooted in the Chilean countryside. In addition, this portfolio also includes a Cabernet Sauvignon, which stands out for its aromas of berries and its long and persistent finish; a Carmenère with aromas of berries and vanilla with rounded tannins, and good structure; a Sauvignon Blanc with citrus aromas, exquisite acidity, and mineral notes; a Chardonnay with citrus notes and a touch of honey; a Pinot Noir, fresh and elegant; and a Merlot, with aromas of black fruits and spices such as cinnamon and fresh herbs.
This is how Guardian, is a line of wines that perfectly reflects the concept of Jorge Martínez, its winemaker, which focuses on respect for the land, the genuine expressions of each variety, and the rescue of heritage vines, thus giving life to wines of a young character, expressive and of great quality.
