Tasting notes

Aromas and flavours of citrus fruits such as grapefruit and lemon peel that lend a fresh balance to the tropical fruit character. Vibrant, fresh, smooth, and well-rounded on the palate.

Producer note

Chile produces remarkably good wines at amazingly good prices from its privileged position between the Andes and the Pacific, where winemakers are blessed with some of the most desirable conditions on earth: exceptional soils, ideal temperatures, intense sunlight. There is very little use of pesticide and the philosophy of the winemakers we work with is: minimal interference. We work closely with a handful of the finest winemakers in Chile. We source Viña Edmara from two main areas: the rich Central Valley area and the cooler Coastal Area. All exhibit the maximum-freshness fruit for which Chile is famous. Viña Edmara wines reflect Chile and the typicity of each of the varietals and of their terroir.

Loamy clay

Vinification

The grapes were hand picked, de-stemmed, crushed, quickly chilled to 10°C (50°F), and pressed to separate the must into different lots for use in different styles of wine. The juice is then clarified through decantation for 24-36 hours and then fermented in stainless steel tanks at 13°C.

Grape

Sauvignon Blanc 100%

Food match

Excellent as an aperitif or with seafood.
