This wine is named after Itata Valley, which was the first settlement of the Spanish Conquistadors during the 16th century. The vineyard is of old vines on steep sloped landscapes. These vines sit on prominent volcanic and granitic soils, which provides excellent nutrients for these 100-year-old vines. About one day of skin contact gives this wine a slight tannic edge. Followed by spontaneous fermentation with native yeast in concrete tank. Low added SO2.

This wine is a blend of Muscatel (60%) and Semillon (40%) and has floral aromas along with fresh stone fruit, mostly of peach and nectarine. Super crisp with refreshing salinity that's bold on the palate, creating a mouthwatering experience. It rounds out with a finish of fresh cut green apple, citrus, and a bit of bitter bubblegum. If you like funky/natty wines, this one is for you!

About the Producer

Dani and Leo have been producing wines in Argentina and Chile since 2014, brought together by a common interest in organic farming and Itata’s terroir. This collaborative effort is focused on the ancient, unirrigated and ungrafted vines in the hills of Itata. They explore sites that highlight the granitic soil and maritime influence that makes this region unique, and seek to make wines with intensity and freshness. The winemaking is very simple, and they use cement tanks as well as open Rauli vats. Grapes are foot-trodden as well as hand-destemmed in zarandas (the large bamboo mat-like sieves that are extended on top of the vats) utilizing traditional winemaking techniques. The wines are produced on a cliff overlooking the Pacific Ocean and the town of Cobquecura.
