La Ventana by Other Wines — Chilled Red from Uruguay
La Ventana is a chilled red wine made from 100% Arinarnoa grapes, grown at Cerro Chapeu in the Uruguayan Pampas. Earthy, juicy and loaded with blackcurrant and sage, it's designed to be served cold — and it completely changes what you think red wine can be. Unfiltered, low intervention and unlike anything on your usual wine shelf.
A red wine that belongs in the fridge
Most people don't think to chill their red wine, but La Ventana is built for it. Serving it cold brings out the fresh, juicy side of the Arinarnoa grape — blackcurrant and dark fruit up front, with an earthy, savoury finish that keeps you coming back. It's light enough to drink on a warm day but has enough depth for a proper meal. If you love red wine but want something that feels more refreshing, this is it.
Arinarnoa: a grape you've probably never heard of
Arinarnoa is a cross between Tannat and Petit Manseng — both grapes with roots in south-west France. It's barely grown anywhere in the world, but at Cerro Chapeu in Uruguay, planted in mineral-rich, terracotta-red sand soil, it produces something special. The wine is left unfiltered, letting all that earthy character shine through. You won't find this grape at your local supermarket, which is exactly the point.
Made by a family that lets nature lead
Cerro Chapeu sits deep in the Uruguayan Pampas, on the border with Brazil. It's run by Pía and Piero Carrau — the third generation of a family that's been farming the land with serious respect for their surroundings. Sheep wander the vineyards, local wildlife thrives, and the winemaking follows suit: minimal intervention, hand-picked grapes, no shortcuts.
About Other Wines
Other Wines was started by Gleb and Jack after a wine-fuelled trip to Georgia opened their eyes to regions the UK wine market completely ignores. They import low intervention wines from independent, family-run vineyards in places like Moldova and Uruguay — regions with thousands of years of winemaking history but almost zero UK shelf space. Every label is a collaboration with London-based artists, and every bottle tells a story worth sharing.

Frequently asked questions
What does La Ventana taste like?
La Ventana has rich blackcurrant and dark fruit flavours, with earthy, savoury notes of sage and a hint of spice. The Arinarnoa grape gives it a distinctive character — juicy and full of flavour, but lighter than you'd expect from a red, especially when served chilled. The unfiltered style adds texture and depth.
How should you serve La Ventana?
Chilled — that's the whole point. Pop it in the fridge for about an hour before serving. It's great with grilled meats, roasted vegetables, slow-cooked stews, or a cheeseboard. Perfect for barbecues and outdoor eating.

What is Arinarnoa?
Arinarnoa is a rare grape variety created by crossing Tannat and Petit Manseng — both originally from south-west France. It's barely grown anywhere in the world, making La Ventana a genuinely unusual find. At Cerro Chapeu in Uruguay, planted in red sand soil, it produces juicy, earthy wines with real character.
Should you chill red wine?
Some reds are brilliant chilled — especially lighter, fruit-forward styles like La Ventana. Serving it cold brings out the freshness and makes it incredibly drinkable, particularly in warmer weather. It's not a rule for every red, but for this one, the fridge is definitely the right call.
