VINIFICATION

The Sauvignon Blanc grapes were carefully transported and rigorously sorted to the cellar. After maceration and pressing, the free-run juice and the lightly pressed juice were cooled to 6-8°C and cold stabilized for 48 hours. before fermentation at low temperature (12°C-14°C) for 21 days.
12% of the blend was fermented in French oak barrels to provide complexity. The wine was left on its lees for six months to provide more texture on the palate and more aromatic complexity.

TERROIR

The grapes come from small plots located in selected vineyards in the Leyda Valley, a well-known subregion of San Antonio, 14 kilometers from the Pacific Ocean. Situated to the west of the coastal mountain range, the soils of the Leyda Valley developed directly from the granite rocks of the coast.
