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.
The wine region of Coquimbo
Chile's northernmost wine region (600 km north of Santiago), covering the Elqui, Limarí and Choapa valleys under a semi-desert climate cooled by the Pacific Camanchaca fog and the Andes. Syrah is the flagship red — intense blackcurrant, blackberry, black pepper, olive and a mineral-saline altitude edge, fine tannins and elegant freshness. Structured Cabernet Sauvignon. Taut Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc with citrus notes.
The word of the wine: Sulphur
An antiseptic and antioxidant substance known since antiquity, probably already used by the Romans. But it was only in modern times that its use was rediscovered. It will allow a better conservation of the wine and thus favour its export. Sulphur also gave the 18th century winegrower the possibility of extending the maceration period without fearing that the wine would turn sour and thus go from dark rosé wines to the red wines of today. Excessive sulphur, on the other hand, kills happiness, paralysing the aromas and causing headaches.
