Viticulture

The Maule valley is Chile’s largest winegrowing region. Its over 50 000 planted hectares make it one of the most geographically and climatically diverse valleys in the country. This allows growing a wide range of grape varieties, from very fresh whites from the mountainous areas to reds with a lot of character from the interior and coastal drylands Maule is home to some of the country's oldest vineyards, some even exceeding the 100 year mark.

Vinification

The grapes for this Sauvignon Blanc are mostly harvested at night After a cold maceration, they are processed in a pneumatic press to obtain their juice, which is clarified and then fermented with selected yeasts under controlled temperature conditions The fermented wines are kept in contact with their lees for a month to enhance complexity and persistence in the mouth.
