Tasting Notes
Brilliant aspect, with pale green tones. Attractive peach and stonefruit aromas. Full bodied wine with intense flavour, good structure, and crisp balancing acidity.
Vinification Details.
Bunches were destemmed, not crushed & pressed immediately. Fermentation in stainless steel tanks using selected yeasts & temperature controlled. No malolactic fermentation, though the wine was left on light fermentation lees for 12 weeks. The lees were stirred once a week.
Producer Information
Laid back New Zealander Brett Jackson is very much settled in Chile - although he hasn't lost his lifelong affection for the All Blacks - and much of Valdivieso's success in recent years has been down to his efforts. Based in Lontue, the company has a wealth of vineyards and the quality of the terroir is shown by the Single Vineyard wines. The whole range encapsulates everything that Chile excels at: rich, vibrant flavours and smooth, glossy textures - and the wines deserve the multitude of gongs they have picked up in recent years.
Regional info.
‘La Primavera' vineyard is situated in the coastal mountain ranges with a sandy loam soil. The vineyard site experiences strong diurnal temperature changes, warm days & cool nights. The resulting fruit develops strong flavours and retains good acidity.
