DENOMINATION OF ORIGIN: Pirque Vineyard, Las Terrazas Block, D.O. Pirque, Maipo Valley.,
AGING:
18 months in French oak barrels, 38% first use and 62% second and third use
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.
SOIL:
Alluvial, rocky, poor in nutrients, and highly permeable due to the gravel in the sub-soil.
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.
