Step into a universe of rich flavors and elegant complexity with Sideral by Via San Pedro a Chilean red blend that lives up to its celestial name. Inspired by the Latin word sideralis, meaning from the stars, Sideral is crafted to shine among the finest wines, capturing the distinct terroir and innovative spirit that define Chiles modern wine scene.
Grown in the heart of the Cachapoal Andes Valley, one of Chiles most celebrated wine regions, Sideral draws its character from a dramatic landscape where the Andes Mountains shape the climate and soil. The vineyards benefit from warm days and cool nights, allowing grapes to ripen slowly and evenly, resulting in exceptional balance and depth of flavor.
Via San Pedro carefully selects grapes from their top parcels, ensuring only the highest quality fruit makes it into Sideral. This meticulous vineyard management, combined with a focus on sustainable practices, reflects a commitment to crafting wines that are true to their origin while respecting nature.
Sideral is a sophisticated blend of several noble grape varieties. Cabernet Sauvignon forms the backbone, delivering structure and firm tannins. Syrah contributes a layer of juicy dark fruit and subtle spice, while Petit Verdot adds vibrant color and hints of floral character. A touch of Carmenre brings a signature Chilean twist with velvety texture and earthy notes. Finally, a splash of Cabernet Franc enhances aromatic finesse and complexity.
Each varietal is fermented separately and aged in fine French oak barrels for about a year. This aging process softens the tannins and weaves together the diverse elements into a harmonious whole, without overpowering the bright fruit that makes Chilean wines so appealing.
Sideral pours a deep ruby red that hints at its depth and richness. Swirl the glass and youre greeted with expressive aromas of ripe blackberries, plum, and black cherry, mingled with notes of vanilla, baking spices, and a subtle touch of tobacco.
On the palate, Sideral is full-bodied yet refined, offering flavors of dark berries, cassis, and hints of mocha. Well-integrated tannins give the wine a smooth texture, while balanced acidity provides freshness and lift. The finish is long and satisfying, leaving behind echoes of juicy fruit and gentle oak spice.
This versatile red blend pairs effortlessly with a range of hearty dishes. Serve it alongside grilled ribeye, lamb chops, or braised short ribs to complement its robust structure. Its equally delightful with roasted duck, mushroom risotto, or an aged cheese platter.
Planning a casual gathering? Sideral elevates barbecued meats and gourmet burgers, making it a reliable choice for both special occasions and laid-back evenings with friends.
To fully appreciate Siderals layered aromas and smooth texture, decant the wine about 30 minutes before serving. Pour it into large red wine glasses to allow it to open up beautifully. The ideal serving temperature is around 6064F (1618C).
Although ready to enjoy now, Sideral also has enough structure to age gracefully for several more years if stored properly.
