Simple, fresh dry whites with a pale golden colour, supple palate with moderate acidity, undemonstrative aromas of citrus and white flowers. Rustic, discreet profile. Almost disappeared from commercial cultivation, preserved in INRAE varietal collections, testament to the pre-phylloxera ampelographic diversity of French vineyards. Rare French white variety, once grown in western France.

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: Astringency
Chemical stimulation that tightens the mucous membranes of the mouth and causes a sensation of harshness, which is characteristic of the presence of tannins. With time, the tannins lose their harshness and become softer.
