THE VINEYARDS
The grapes come from estate vineyards in Valle Central, 285 km south of Santiago in the Maule Valley of Chile. The soils are derived from volcanic ash and consist of sandy to sandy-loam earth. The vineyards are flat and receive an excellent exposure to sunlight. The yields are carefully controlled so as to produce concentrated and elegant wines.

CLIMATE The Valle Central region of Chile has a Mediterranean- style climate. Winter rains are plentiful and summers are dry with marked temperature variations between day and night, thereby allowing the grapes to obtain superb tannin development as well as excellent aromas and color concentration. APPELATION D.O. Valle Central, Chile VINIFICATION The grapes were harvested by hand in the middle of April. In order to extract color and aromas the must underwent skin contact at low temperatures prior to alcoholic fermentation. The must is then fermented in stainless steel tanks with selected yeasts at temperatures ranging from 26° to 28°C during a seven-day period. The wine is then left to macerate for five additional days in order to extract its fruity characteristics. A very small percentage of this Syrah is placed in oak barrels in order to increase the complexity and elegance of the wine.
