All of the fruit comes from our estate’s best block, Block 7. (Planted in 2003). The grapes are hand-picked and gently fermented with only the naturally occurring yeast. To bring you the pure and most honest expression of this emblematic variety and the noble volcanic soils of the Maipo Mountain, we age this wine exclusively in egg-shaped concrete tanks.
