Appellation
GI Los Chacayes. An old pergola vineyard, planted on a soil somewhat deeper than those usually found in Los Chacayes. The flora surrounding this plot (jarilla, thyme, eucalyptus, among others) often shows in the aromatic expression of this wine.
Harvest and winemaking
Usually harvested in mid-March. It ferments in concrete eggs with indigenous yeasts, then ages for six months in those same vessels before bottling.
