Viñedo Chadwick: from a polo ground to a world-class Cabernet Sauvignon

Viñedo Chadwick pays tribute to Don Alfonso Chadwick and reflects the Chadwick family’s long-standing tradition and expertise in crafting fine wines. Once Don Alfonso’s private polo field, the vineyard is now celebrated as the birthplace of one of Chile’s finest world-class Cabernet Sauvignons.

Located in Puente Alto D.O. in the Maipo Valley, Viñedo Chadwick gained international recognition at the legendary Berlin Tasting in January 2004, when its 2000 vintage was ranked first, ahead of Italy’s Super Tuscans and Bordeaux’s First Growths.

The 2023 vintage marks the estate’s 25th anniversary and is presented with a special label, a French-made bottle, and a bespoke wooden case, exclusively for this vintage.

The 2023 vintage:

The 2023 vintage at Viñedo Chadwick has produced a remarkable wine, with vibrant colour, fresh fruit aromas, and elegant tannins. A warm growing season gave rise to a wine that combines lively freshness with refined structure, perfectly expressing the exceptional quality of the terroir. At Viñedo Chadwick, the influence of the Andes helped preserve freshness throughout a warm vintage, with temperatures ultimately remaining below the ten-year average. The harvest lasted between three weeks and one month, and production is limited.

Tasting notes:

“Viñedo Chadwick 2023 presents a vibrant purple-red hue with ruby highlights. On the nose, it reveals a complex array of layers, showcasing intense aromas of fresh red fruits, such as cherry and raspberry, alongside delicate floral notes of wild rose. The palate harmoniously echoes these floral nuances, framed by soft, fresh red fruit flavors. This vintage features fine-grained tannins with a chalky texture, providing a firm and elegant structure throughout its journey on the palate, lingering beautifully with remarkable persistence.” Emily Faulconer, Technical Director

Always a wine with a ton of depth and character, and it goes the distance - I had a 15 year old version recently at home and it had held up beautifully. Fine tannins, welcoming toasted spices of rosemary, cumin, cracked black pepper, crayon, graphite, touch of balsamic and soy. 15ha estate from owner Eduardo Chadwick, Emily Falconer winemaker. This has changed its Bordeaux release date from September to March.

With a special 25^th year celebration label. Glossy, very pure, aerial and lifted even if it’s a little close at first. Less obviously spicy and a little more classical and refined and restrained than it sometimes is at this stage. Shimmering in its cool precision and elegance, very layered and with a fantastic luminous and crystalline presence in the mouth – sheets of silk layered on top of one another. The florality, only subtly suggested aromatically, is so well conveyed to the palate. So cool and plunge-pool at the core. Pixilating tannins pick out little details and also the layering. Milles feuilles. I love it. There’s a subtle florality here too. Sumptuous, yet so refined and elegant.

Crisp, pure and fine with a lovely depth and weight on the palate. Not heavy, more refined and focussed with vibrant energy and precision. This feels accessible and classically styled with structure and sinewy muscles. Filling in a great way. Pure and elegant with beautiful pristine fruit, clean and so transparent. Plus you really get the florality come through. Incredibly open and enjoyable.

The Wine Palate

byLisa Perrotti-Brownthe2/2/2026

The 2023 Viñedo Chadwick is deep garnet-purple in color. It shoots from the glass with bold notes of black-currant jelly, sautéed herbs, and tree moss, followed by hints of graphite and tapenade. The medium-bodied palate is tightly wound with expressive cassis and herbal flavors, framed by firm, grainy tannins and amazing tension, finishing long and savory. The blend is 96% Cabernet Sauvignon and 4% Syrah.

As always, this is super refined, but with convincing cabernet sauvignon depth on the nose. Lightly ashy, with a medium to full body and lots of fine cigar box, tobacco, cassis, dark berries, cocoa powder and hints of cumin and fennel. Firm and rich, and the tannins are polished but chalky and reactive, with an incredibly long, juicy finish. This is the 25th vintage of Vinedo Chadwick, and it is definitely one of the best cabernets from this hot vintage, but I don't feel any heat here. In fact, I can't even tell that this comes from a warm year. 96% cabernet sauvignon and 4% petit verdot. This shows transparency and purity of fruit compared with the more cedary 2021. This is one of the best vintages of Vinedo de Chadwick. There is lovely balance that makes it approachable now, but it will be better from 2027.

Wine Advocate

byMatthew Luczythe1/30/2026

The 2023 Viñedo Chadwick includes 4% Petit Verdot and underwent an 18-month élevage in 90% barrique and 10% foudre. It is a more high-toned and beaming expression in this vintage, opening with dried herb, pipe tobacco, amaro and vanilla aromas, along with a bright, red-fruited and elegantly floral core. The palate displays Chadwick's textbook grace and finesse, combining a juicy and seamless profile of understated ripeness with mouthwatering acidity that carries through the refined, sturdy finish. Youthful, oak-derived aromas of vanilla and graphite emerge with further aeration, as does a touch of retronasal perfume that further enlivens the finish. Overall, this is a charming showing of Chadwick that is quite approachable in its youth, and my score could appear conservative with more time in bottle.

96,5

byJoaquin Hidalgothe7/16/2025

The 2023 Viñedo Chadwick is a blend of 96% Cabernet Sauvignon and 4% Petit Verdot from Puente Alto. This vintage offers a slightly more restrained fruit profile, with notes of cherry, balsamic hints and a touch of cedar contributing complexity. With air, subtle tones of preserves and sour cherry begin to emerge. The palate is dry and linear, with fine tannins and a lean feel that reflects the character of the year. Integrated acidity lifts the finish, while the structure suggests this will gain in delicacy with time, even if it remains somewhat tightly wound today.
