Elegant, complex rosés with a pale salmon robe, airy palate and fresh acidity, showing refined aromas of red fruits (strawberry, raspberry), garrigue, Mediterranean herbs, white flowers and characteristic saline, iodine notes. Also vinified as light, fragrant reds. Star of Provence's great rosés from Côtes de Provence AOC (Cru Classé, Saint-Tropez area). Autochthonous Provençal variety from the Var, likely imported from the Middle East by ancient Phocaean sailors.

Round Chardonnay whites and lively, sharp Sauvignon. Mediterranean climate, 400 km between Andes and Pacific. Star sub-regions: Maipo, Cachapoal, Colchagua, Curicó, Maule.
The word of the wine: Reassembly
During the vinification process, a "cap" is formed at the top of the vats with the solid parts (skin, pulp, pips, etc.), which contain tannins and colouring elements. Pumping over consists of emptying the vat from the bottom and pouring the juice back to the top, in order to mix the cap and the juice and to favour the exchange and the extraction. This old technique allows a better exchange between the solid parts and the liquid.
