Tasting note
Ripe citrus and green apple aromas with hazelnut and smoky mineral notes adding further complexity. Medium bodied with an intense and ripe fruit core.
Viticulture
De Martino, pioneers of Chilean wine, led by revered winemaker Marcel Retamal, reshaped the scene in 2011. They embraced indigenous yeasts, earlier harvest, and minimal oak. Voted 'winery of the year,' they craft diverse wines from unique terroirs and varietals, including the homage Viejas Tinajas from old vines in Itata, reflecting ancestral methods.
Vinification
Hand harvested and whole bunch pressed in a vertical press under oxidative conditions. Spontaneous alcoholic fermentation in used French 228 lts. barrels. 100% malolactic fermentation also carried out in barrel and aged for 12 months in 2500 lts foudres.
Food Match
