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 the wealthy new landowners of the 19th century began planting large vineyards in the fertile central valleys of Chile, they must have been impressed at how successful the imported Old World grape varietals took to the land. However, such a fact is hardly surprising; with eight months of blazing sunshine coupled with oceanic winds from the west, and crystal clear spring waters from the Andes irrigating the soil, grapes such as Malbec, Merlot, Chardonnay and Cabernet Sauvignon were given everything they needed to flourish, and more. As the centuries passed, Chilean wineries continued to expand and experiment, resulting in a wide range of wine production methods and techniques, and consistently producing fine quality wines perfect for the international market. Nowadays, Chile is renowned for producing a wide variety of crisp white wines, and juicy, fruity reds enjoyed around the world for their drinkability and flavorful character, making this country very much one of the 'New World', albeit one with a fascinating link to the Old.
