Discover the grape variety: Panse précoce

Most certainly finding its first origins in southern Provence, registered in the Official Catalogue of table grape varieties list A1. According to genetic analyses published in Montpellier (Hérault), it is the result of a cross between the bicane and the pascal blanc. It should not be confused with the foster' white grown in Italy and wrongly called panse précoce. Finally, it can also be confused with the Panse de Provence, which has downy-pubescent leaves and ripens in the second half of the year.

The wine region of Elqui Valley

The Elqui Valley wine region is located 400 kilometers (250mi) North of the Chilean capital, Central-valley/maipo-valley/santiago">Santiago, at the very southern edge of the Atacama Desert. Its latitude of 29° makes it Chile's northernmost wine region, for now at least; the country's determined wine pioneers are now setting their sights as far north as the Atacama. Traditionally the region focused exclusively on producing Chile's trademark brandy, Pisco, but today Elqui Valley vineyards are producing Bright, intensely Aromatic wines, most notably from Sauvignon Blanc and Syrah. As might be expected in an arid, largely uninhabited region surrounded by desert, the valley is hot and Dry making irrigation essential in all vineyards here.
