The 2021 Cinsault is from a nice vintage, cool and with healthy grapes that ripened well. It comes from a 65-year-old vineyard in Guarilihue in the Secano Interior appellation on degraded sandy granite soils with lots of quartz and no clay, worked organically (but not certified) with horses. It fermented in concrete cubes and stainless steel with full clusters and native yeasts with a very soft vinification. It matured in concrete and 25% in neutral 500-liter barrels for 11 months. It has 13.5% alcohol and very good balance with freshness and acidity. It has a bright nose of wild berries and herbs, floral, clean and expressive. It's medium-bodied, has a rocky sensation in the texture, a fine thread and chalky, fine-grained tannins. 4,000 bottles were filled in February 2022.

Country: Chile

When considering the rich and fertile central valleys of Chile, where we find most of the oldest, grandest and established wineries, it is difficult to imagine a more suited landscape for vineyard cultivation and wine production. Mineral rich soils, eight months of sunshine per year, oceanic winds and clear water running down the mountainsides – it is little wonder that the imported Old World grapes do so well here. Chile is renowned world-wide for producing highly drinkable wines, packed full of fruit-forward character and enjoyed young and fresh, as well as being home to more complex wines reminiscent of many Old World varieties. Whilst the Cabernet Sauvignon is widely regarded as being Chile's 'flagship' grape varietal, equally fine produce comes from Chardonnay grapes (indeed, the Sol de Sol Chardonnays are widely agreed to be amongst the New World's finest white wines) the plummy Merlot and silky, intense Pinot Noir.
