Winery | The Cabernet Franc grapes were sourced from a selected vineyard planted exclusively for this range in Catemito, in the Valle de Maipo. The daily temperatures during the summer are lower in this area than in the rest of the Valle de Maipo, decreasing substantially in March and April, providing the ideal conditions for the tannins to ripen completely and ensure that the fresh aromas and flavours are preserved. Catemito is located on an alluvial terrace formed in the Holocene period, approximately 10,000 years ago. The soil has a mixed sandy-clayey texture and a high presence of gravel, resulting in good drainage and balanced vigour and yields. The vines are 12 years old and planted on their rootstocks. This low-yielding terroir of 2.25 hectares was subjected to a controlled limited water supply during ripening. The yield was 1.5 kg per vine, providing the necessary concentration for a rich, ripe wine. |
