About this product
The wine that put Maule on the natural wine map — 100-year-old dry-farmed Carignan from granite soils in the Truquilemo area of Maule, harvested by hand and fermented with indigenous yeasts in old concrete and barrels. Vibrant garnet with aromas of red cherry, dried herbs, iron mineral, earthy granite, and wild flowers. Silky tannins and electric acidity from the old vines' natural balance. A wine of profound historical importance — connecting modern Chilean wine to its 19th century heritage.
