White blend from the Central Valley of Chile. 73.6% Riesling – 18.4% Voignier – 5% Chardonnay – 3% Sauvignon Blanc. Superb quality and craftsmanship are the hallmark of Santa Rita, one of Chile’s most admired and innovative wine estates. Heroes White is a blend that combines the depth, minerality and freshness of the Riesling of Casablanca; the sweetness, roundness and ripeness of Voignier from Colchagua Valley; with the structure of Chardonnay and the herbal notes of Sauvignon Blanc – for a wine intended for foods that offer alternatives to those who seek complex aromas, flavors and different textures. — 5 years ago

Loved this and then had a bad bottle. — 3 years ago
This blend of 5 varieties is mild to the nose as well is soft to the palette. The cab shows itself at first but the mellowness of the Syrah, Verdot and Carmenere linger on the end. Easy drinking and smooth. — 5 years ago

I bought this at a large bottle shop in the Ginza in Tokyo in mid February, which specialised in Japanese Whisky. Quite expensive at $450 AUD but certainly of high quality. I was looking for something I thought would not be available in Australia but it turns out it is available for the same money!! A note of orange peel. The 55% ABV is a trifle hot but not overly so. The impact of the peat is not as pronounced as western isles heroes like Lagavulin and Laphroig. Smoky as expected and thoroughly satisfying. Had the last nip a few days ago. — a month ago
