Vintage

A very challenging 2020 season, presenting the driest winter of the last 50 years. The vineyards in the Aconcagua Region had to endure an intense hydric marathon to accomplish ripeness. Warm temperatures, especially in springtime, ended the season with a slightly colder March and April. Moderate crop yield and abundant irrigation in summer helped maintain the freshness and quality of the vines.

Winemaking

90% of the grapes were fermented in stainless steel tanks for 15 to 20 days at temperatures that fluctuated between 14 and 16 degrees. The remaining 10% was direct pressed and fermented in previously used French oak barrels, where the new wine remained in contact with its fine lees for 5 months.
