TERROIR
Vineyard: The vineyards grow on a unique terrace over the Maipo River at 650 meters above sea level, Los Morros area, foothills of Andes Mountain. Soil: consists of a geological formation of colluvial and alluvial sediment. The pebbles provide the necessary porosity for the good development at the depth of the roots of the vines.
Climate: With a semi-arid Mediterranean climate, high exposure to sunlight and the influence of the winds that come down the Maipo River Valley from the Andes mountains, the vines are kept aerated by natural cooling at night and achieve optimal ripening.
All the previous conditions make the use
of pesticides unnecessary and allow us for sustainable management. Our privileged terroir, where an effect of height is recognized in increased freshness wines, which in addition to stony soils, creates wines with great balance in mouth and high aromatic expression.
