Tasting Notes

Fresh and expressive aromas of pear, quince and lemon curd, interwoven with toasty oak notes. Vibrant purity of the fruit with beautiful texture and good depth, reveal the remarkable fresh fruit characters that lead to a long memorable finish

History

Harvest 2015 had a very positive development, and yields within expected. The season was marked by a very beneficial rainfall at the beginning, great for the evolution of the vines. Weather conditions and extended temperature range between day and night allowed for slow ripening of the grapes, maintaining excellent quality of fruit and freshness. These conditions, together with careful vineyard management resulted in elegant notes and a complex aromatic profile.

Regional Information

Casablanca valley is roughly 30km (20 miles) long, stretching to the eastern border of the Valparaiso province. Because it is only 30km (20 miles) from the Pacific Ocean at its furthest point, Casablanca Valley is strongly influenced by the cooling effects of the Humboldt Current, which flows up the west coast of Chile from the Antarctic. It is this cooler climate that makes Casablanca's wines stand out with a longer ripening period to develop greater flavor complexity.

Vinification Details

Grapes are harvested at night, and whole clusted pressed. Part of the wine is barrel fermented in neutral oak with native yeasts, and the rest in fermentation until the ideal balanced flavors are achieved, enhancing the Chardonnays softness and creaminess without losing its freshness.
