Vineyards
The grapes for our Estate Sauvignon Blanc come from selected vineyards that grow close to the Pacific Ocean’s coast in the Aconcagua Region, on rolling hills at an altitude of 100 to 300 meters above sea level. Gentle Pacific breezes and morning fog make these vineyards ideal for producing refreshing Sauvignon Blanc.
Vintage
The Aconcagua Region’s 2021–2022 season was marked by low precipitation. The temperatures were moderate, however, and there were no high-heat events, all of which made it possible for good phenolic maturation and higher acidity in the grapes. Production was generally lower than in the previous year due to the eects of the very high yields during the 2021 season. It also resulted in bunch weights that were lower than normal in some red varieties. These conditions resulted in white wines with good aromatic intensity and acidity and reds with intense colour, fresh fruit, and elegant, ripe tannins.
Winemaking
Grapes were picked Hand and taken to the winery where they were destemmed, crushed and pressed. The must was lightly clarified and fermented in stainless steel tanks at 12-14° C. Fermentation took between 15 to 20 days, and the resulting wine was then separated in different lots that stayed in touch with their lees during three months to intensify its distinctive fruit character and develop a nice texture. Once the final blend was finished, it was stabilized and softly filtered prior to bottling.
