December, 2008.- San Pedro is pleased to share with you some notable results attained in the La Cav Magazine’s Tasting Panel Guide, the publication of the largest Chilean Wine-lovers Club and one of the most important specialized media in the country.
At the 10 best Cabernet Sauvignon Category, our wine 1865 Single Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2006 was chosen as the number one, with 90 points. A remarkable recognition for a key variety in both, local and international markets.
- But besides this first place, San Pedro also stood out in other categories:

These results were announced during the presentation dinner of the guide, which is a compilation of all tasting notes published once a month in La Cav Magazine by the expert’s panel. This three members panel is directed by Sommelier Pascual Ibáñez and during all this year 2008 blind-tasted about 1,000 Chilean wines, all of them, available in local supermarkets and wine-shops. The guide with these scores circulates with La Cav’s last edition and constitute an useful tool to strengthen and promote San Pedro’s wines.
