The grapes come from the Central Valley, one of Chile's main wine-growing areas. The weather is like the weather in the Mediterranean region, with hot, dry summers and short, mild winters. Because it is close to the sea, it is always damp and foggy in the morning. This means the grapes ripen slowly, and the wine is of a high quality.
Grapes are hand picked and transported to the winery in small baskets in order to preserve the bunches whole and undamaged. Then the grapes are destemmed and proceed to cold maceration (for 2-3 days at very low temperatures) to express the maximum the extraction of fruit aromas and soft tannins. After fermentation, a post-fermentation maceration is carried out to obtain a mature, complex and elegant wine with a soft, round palate.
