How it's made

​

Our long standing relationships with growers enable us to source premium fruit, with the ultimate aim of making excellent quality Chilean entry level wines with true style and character. For the Sauvignon Blanc, we work with two families in two different locations for a blend with a huge appeal. The first family is the Martin family, who are nestled in the Andes Mountains in a western corner of Curico. Their vineyards sit around 500M above sea level, a far higher altitude than the majority of Curico's main valley, which lies at around 250M above sea level. The higher the altitude and proximity to the mountains means evening temperatures drop significantly, allowing Sauvignon Blanc grapes to retain a crucial acidity as they ripen. This altitude also ensures there is minimal intervention in the vineyards (no chemical sprays or irrigation), only pure glacial streams. Their old established vines planted on steep slopes means grapes can only be harvested by hand. Once the grapes are picked and crushed, cool fermentation is used to preserve the freshness and fruit aromas. We blend this wine from Curico, with Sauvignon Blanc from the German family in Cachapoal. Here, in a warmer location, the variety gains great aromatic expression. Typically we see great varietal character thanks to the correct clones being used along with early harvesting. Wines from this warmer spot usually have a little more body, making the blend with the Martin family wines such a great combination of aromatics, fresh acidity and weight. Possibly the biggest strength of this blend is our ability to balance out warmer and cooler vintages with these two different profiles. The wine is settled in tank for a short period before being bottled early to preserve the wines youthful vibrancy.
