Discovering the wine region of Ica

Valle de Ica Lies in the Ica province of Peru. It is one of five centres of Grapegrowing within the Protected Designation of Origin for Pisco production, and often appears on labels. There are around 85 producers in the area. As in other zones, Vineyards dedicated for Pisco are most often planted to members of the Muscat family of grape varieties.

Table wines are also made from varieties including Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, Syrah and Chardonnay. Located around 300 kilometers South of Lima, this is one of the driest places on the planet. No rain or frost has ever been recorded here. Vineyards here are sustained by an aquifer containing glacial meltwater from the Andes.

Valle de Ica has a tropical latitude and lies at an altitude of around 400 meters. It does benefit from breezes from the Pacific Ocean; while days are still hot, nights are cooler. Under these conditions, vineyard harvests are reassuringly predictable. Grapes grown here, unsurprisingly, have high sugars and low acidities.

Discover the grape variety: Ancellotta

A very old grape variety that has been cultivated for a long time in the northern and central parts of Italy. It can also be found in Switzerland, Spain, Eastern Europe, Brazil, Argentina, ... little known in France.

The word of the wine: Serious

A Bordeaux term for small pebbles from the Pyrenees, eroded, rounded and transported by the Garonne to Aquitaine. They are mainly found on the left bank in the area.... known as the Graves, and further downstream in the Médoc. By extension, gravel is found in other regions, brought by other rivers or even glaciers.
