DENOMINATION OF ORIGIN: Puente Alto Vineyard and Pirque Vineyard, D.O Maipo, Maipo Valley.,
AGING:
16 months in French oak barrels, and in 5,000-liter foudre.
VINEYARD:
Both vineyards are located close to the foothills of the Andes Mountains –Puente Alto 650 msnm and Pirque 570 msnm-, and have alluvial soils that are poor in nutrients, rocky, and highly permeable due to the abundance of gravel in the subsoil.
SOIL:
Associated with fluvial terraces. Alluvial, rocky, poor in nutrients, and highly permeable due to the abundance of gravel in the subsoil.
WEATHER:
Semi-arid Mediterranean with a strong influence of the Andes Mountains. This is the coldest part of the Maipo Valley and has a pronounced difference between daytime and nighttime temperatures (approximately 18oC). An extended ripening period concentrated and intensifies the aromas in the grapes.
Grilled, roasted, or stewed red meats and game with intense and slightly acidic sauces (tomato or wine) or with herbs such as rosemary, thyme, and bay leaf. Perfect with most cheeses.
