Details
Ripe blackcurrants, blackberries, and dark cherries dominate, with stewed fruit richness complemented by eucalyptus, mint, and a touch of tobacco. Cocoa, graphite, and sweet spice add depth, while smooth, silky tannins and bright acidity keep it fresh and balanced. The finish has a gentle black pepper kick, making this a concentrated, elegant, and polished red.

Valle Secreto is the vision of two families who set out to create wines of exceptional character in one of Chile’s most privileged landscapes. Founded in 2007 in the Alto Cachapoal Valley, just south of Santiago, the boutique winery combines a respect for nature’s generosity with an unwavering focus on quality - from vineyard to glass. Here, modern facilities blend with the romance of history, and the kindness of the climate allows the vines to express the purity and depth of their origin. Each bottle captures the soul of the Andes, where altitude, sunlight, and cool mountain air shape wines of elegance, balance, and unmistakable identity. Innovative yet grounded in tradition, Valle Secreto unites viticulture and tourism to create a complete sensory experience. Led by the Puntí Ferrer and Berndt Cramer families, and later joined by American partner Richard Samale, the project reflects a shared dream - to craft distinctive wines that embody the spirit of the valley. Today, Valle Secreto stands as one of Chile’s most exciting boutique producers, celebrated for its authenticity, its harmony with nature, and its ability to reveal the quiet magic of Cachapoal in every glass.

Pairing guide
This rich, fruit-forward red works beautifully with roast beef with a peppercorn sauce, braised short ribs, or lamb tagine with dried fruits and warm spices. For a vegetarian or vegan option, try mushroom and black bean stew with smoked paprika and rosemary, or roasted root vegetables with a balsamic glaze and fresh herbs — both bring out the wine’s ripe fruit, herbal notes, and subtle spice.
