Lucas is the youngest son of Maturana Wines’ winemaker José Ignacio Maturana. When Lucas was little, he used to crawl out of his crib to eat the grapes from vines in the patio of José Ignacio’s house, fooling his father, who thought birds were the culprits. This joyful cuvée is named after Lucas, who inherited his father’s talent to find the juiciest of grapes. Rich and intensely fruity, with crunchy tannins, this wine is matured in French oak for 10 months, refining the palate texture and bringing subtle spice notes.
"On the nose, aromas of cassis with black pepper and tobacco notes. On the palate, a balanced structure, powerful and smooth, with ripe yet firm tannins. The finish is long and slightly smoky."

Jose Ignacio Maturana and his family started the production of unique wines that they hoped would display a sense of place and that represent a way of life. Together they created Maturana Wines, a project based on vines of more than 70 years old, which are worked completely by hand and following organic principles.
The quality and availability of Chilean wines have flourished in the last twenty years. While wine consumers worldwide enjoy the easy-drinking charm of Chile’s inexpensive fruity wines, Chile’s wine producers have higher aspirations too, to make stylish, complex wines expressive of their unique origins, wines with a tangible ‘sense of place’, a notion the Europeans call terroir.
