The vineyards are located in the Leyda Valley, approximately 9 miles from the Pacific coast, on moderately sloping hillsides with granite soils that contain a significant presence of clay. The vines are planted at a density of 5,555 plants per every 2.5 acres and trained to vertical shoot position. Pruning aims to achieve low yields (up to 6,245lb/ac) and slightly early ripening. Leaf canopies were kept intact until harvest to maintain good bunch coverage, which enables the fruit to reach harvest with very good levels of aromas in the skins.
Pale-yellow color, with green tones. The nose faithfully reflects the wine’s origin, with clear, impressive notes of white fruit and typical aromas of passion fruit and fresh pineapple. There are distinguishable notes of pyrascine and boxwood, together with elegant floral notes of orange blossom. The wine is piercing and vibrant on the palate, with a light body and long finish. Fresh flavors explode on the palate, with notes of yellow grapefruit, and great minerality.
