Root: 1 Cabernet Sauvignon
The hot, dry climate of the Colchagua Valley is perfect for producing concentrated Cabernet Sauvignon
of exceptional quality. Root: 1 is known for its elegant and ripe fruit flavors. Deep garnet in color with
bright reflections, it showcases aromas of ripe berries, cassis, plum and dark cherry, followed by light
toast notes. Juicy red berry and mocha flavors with a full-bodied structure are balanced by smooth
tannins and a lengthy finish.

Heritage Red Blend
The Root: 1 Heritage Red is an expressive, original blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Carmenere, Syrah and
Petit Verdot. Deep ruby red in color, complemented by aromas of cherries, blackberries, black pepper and
delicate notes of cassis, toffee and dark chocolate, the palate opens with abundant fruit-filled flavors. Its
silky tannins and solid structure create a perfectly balanced framework for this full-bodied wine.
