Winery | The grapes come from the Zalle Oermoso vineyard, located just 16 km from the Pacific Ocean and planted on gentle hills with direct influence from the cool coastal climate. The granitic soils are in an advanced state of decomposition, with the presence of iron-rich mica, and they retain a loose texture, even at depth. The vineyards are farmed biodynamically, and the grapes are hand-harvested We are a boutique biodynamic winery in the Rosario Valley, between the coastal valleys of Casablanca and San Antonio. Our vineyards were planted in 1999 on the hillsides of this privileged area, making us among the pioneers of cool-climate Syrah production in Chile. |
