Discovering the wine region of Limarí Valley

Wine valley in northern Chile 20 km from the Pacific, bordering the Atacama. Limestone soils rare in Chile and coastal "Camanchaca" fog bring minerality and tension. Signature Chardonnay in white: fine and mineral with hallmark notes of lemon, white apple, white flowers, soft vanilla and a chalky saline touch, taut long palate — barrel-aged. Brilliant Syrah: spicy and saline near the coast (pepper, black olive), fruity inland.

Emerging elite region.
