ALKA (named after the iconic animal, French for "the rooster" in the Mapuche language) is the fruit of the pursuit of excellence in Carmenere. With this wine, Jacques and François sought to demonstrate that the Carmenere grape variety alone, cultivated organically and without any blending, can produce a great, complex, and elegant wine. It is the first icon wine produced in Chile made entirely from 100% organic Carmenere grapes.
