Bright greenish tones, slightly pale yellow. Delicate freshness and minerality. A nice combination of blackcurrant, lime, white flowers, asparagus, limestone, marine and saline notes. Saline, mineral, and crunchy acidity. Very fresh and juicy. It perfectly defines the year. A charming wine.
Denomination of Origin
Los Boldos Vineyard, Block 5, D.O. Casablanca, Casablanca Valley.
VINEYARD
The Los Boldos Vineyard is located 390 meters above sea level, just 15 kilometers from the Pacific Ocean in the coldest sector of the Casablanca Valley. The clones used are Davis 1 (96,7%), 107 Sancerre (2,7%), 242 Sancerre (0,5%) and clon 108 (0,1%). The vines are vertically positioned and double cordon trellised. The vineyard is known for its morning fog and an abundance of cold and windy days, all of which causes the grapes to ripen slowly and later in the season. The soils are permeable and contain little organic matter.
WEATHER
Coastal, with maximum summer temperatures of 27o–28oC. Key factors are cool sea breezes, early morning fog, and the wind, all of which help produce more intense varietal aromas and avors.
AGING
7 months in stainless steel tanks.
SOIL
Red clay, poor in organic matter, quite permeable with good drainage. The vineyards are planted on hillsides with a southeastern exposure, which helps balance the vines. The soils are of colluvial origin with red clay for the first 35 cm followed by weathered rock (alterite) and granitic soil.
Winemakers
MARCIO RAMÍREZ
"At the moment of creating a wine, I always expect it to express all its special features, all the essence of its grapes together with the character of the soil where it belongs. A unique combination that can be appreciated in its color, bouquet and flavors".
