Vintage Notes:

Chile’s growing season started with widespread frosts in mid-September, dropping the countries annual production between twenty-ve and fty percent. Due to a smaller harvest and barely any rain during bud break, owering and ripening, harvest came earlier than in previous vintages. In addition, warmer than usual temperatures and an ongoing water shortage added stress to the grapes and produced some excellent quality wines. They were marked with balance, intense color and expressive fruit characteristics.

Appellation:

Chile’s natural boundaries are clearly defined. At the north end is the Atacama Desert, the south end is defined by the Patagonian glaciers, the eastern border is marked by the great Andes Mountain Range and to the west is the Pacific Ocean. Together these distinct barriers help to maintain healthy growing conditions, protecting vineyards from pests and disease.

Stretching nearly 250 miles from north to south, Valle Central of Chile is one of the largest wine regions in South America. In this region, vines thrive in uninterrupted sunshine. As night falls, cold air descends from the snow-covered peaks of the Andes. This temperature swing provides the environment wine grapes need to develop fresh fruit characteristics and crisp acidity. Chilean vineyards benefit from the abundant water for irrigation which flows from the eternal ice caps of the Andes.

Chile's unique geography and climate make for an ideal winegrowing region.
