Production
100% País, from dry farmed vines which are estimated to be over 150 years old. Grapes are hand picked and destemmed and put in to open top wooden tanks where slow alcoholic fermentation takes place over 18 days with soft pump overs to avoid extraction. Malolactic fermentation takes place and the wine is aged in concrete eggs and old French oak barrels for 18 months.
Tasting notes
Red fruit aromas such as cherries and wild herbs, with an earthy hint. The palate shows bright red cherry fruit with some savoury garrigue notes with firm and gentle tannins to provide structured and balanced. An elegant and complex wine that is reminiscent of Chile´s native forest.
Food match
Works well with Mediterranean dishes, oily fish or chargrilled vegetable dishes.
