The grapes for this wine come from the sector of Yerbas Buenas, located in the Andean foothills of the Maule Valley. There the soils are of alluvial origin and show a loamy, clayey, and sandy texture, with gravels. The proximity to the Cordillera generates a particular microclimate that allows the production of grapes of high aromatic expression and abundant freshness. The harvest is done mechanically, with berry selection, at their exact ripeness point.

After pressing the grapes, the juice decants at low temperatures to obtain a very clean must. After that, fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks between 10 and 12º C, using selected yeasts. This allows the development of the variety’s complete potential with citric and fruity notes.
