The wine region of Leyda Valley
Chilean coastal sub-region of the San Antonio Valley (90 km west of Santiago): Sauvignon Blanc flagship white (~45% of planted) — racy and mineral with signature notes of citrus, melon, tropical fruits, herbs and flint touch, signature bursting acidity. Vibrant Pinot Noir flagship red with cherry, raspberry, herbs and spice notes, signature elegance and freshness. Cold climate from Humboldt current, clay-loam soils on draining granite.
The wine region of Aconcagua
Chilean valley at the foot of the highest summit of the Americas (6,960 m), hot dry climate tempered by Pacific breezes, altitude vineyards up to 1,600 m. Signature Cabernet Sauvignon as red king: powerful with blackcurrant, blackberry, black cherry, eucalyptus, cedar, tobacco and peppery touch, firm tannins and exceptional ageing — home of Errazuriz (1870) and great Chileans (Sena, Don Maximiano). Dense Syrah, spiced Carmenere and supple Merlot as complements.
The word of the wine: Extraction
All the methods (pumping over, punching down) that allow the colour and tannins to be extracted from the grape skin during maceration, before fermentation begins. It is also possible to macerate after fermentation, but gently, so as not to extract the tannins from the seeds, which are greener. Because of its solvent power, alcohol favours extraction.
