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

Chile has a long and rich wine history which dates back to the Spanish conquistadors of the 16th century, who were the first to discover that the wonderful climate and fertile soils of this South American country were ideal for vine cultivation. It has only been in the past forty or fifty years, however, that Chile as a modern wine producing nation has really had an impact on the rest of the world. Generally relatively cheap in price,Whilst being widely regarded as definitively 'New World' as a wine producing country, Chile has actually been cultivating grapevines for wine production for over five hundred years. The Iberian conquistadors first introduced vines to Chile with which to make sacramental wines, and although these were considerably different in everything from flavor, aroma and character to the wines we associate with Chile today, the country has a long and interesting heritage when it comes to this drink. Chilean wine production as we know it first arose in the country in the mid to late 19th century, when wealthy landowners and industrialists first began planting vineyards as a way of adopting some European class and style. They quickly discovered that the hot climate, sloping mountainsides and oceanic winds provided a perfect terroir for quality wines, and many of these original estates remain today in all their grandeur and beauty, still producing the wines which made the country famous.
