Intense red color. Highly expressive, with notes of blueberry, blackcurrant, graphite, and chocolate. Elegant herbal tones. It is an elegant and potent wine, with great density and character, vibrant and nervy enough to highlight the palate.
Denomination of Origin
Pirque Vineyard, Las Terrazas Block, D.O. Pirque, Maipo Valley.
VINEYARD
The Pirque Viejo Vineyard is one of the winery’s oldest vineyards. It is located 650 m above sea level and runs along the Maipo River, near the foothills of the Andes Mountains. The vertically positioned, cordon-pruned vines come from pre-phylloxera vinestock.
WEATHER
Semi-arid Mediterranean. Strongly influenced by the Andes Mountains and the proximity to the Maipo River. The high daily temperature oscillation helps develop the fruit concentration and intensifies the aromas.
AGING
18 months in French oak barrels, 38% first use and 62% second and third use
SOIL
Alluvial, rocky, poor in nutrients, and highly permeable due to the gravel in the sub-soil.
Winemakers
MARCIO RAMÍREZ
"At the moment of creating a wine, I always expect it to express all its special features, all the essence of its grapes together with the character of the soil where it belongs. A unique combination that can be appreciated in its color, bouquet and flavors".
