ABOUT THE PRODUCER:
Time and time again we return to Chile to look for great wines at great prices, working with a network of long-established contacts in vineyards and in wineries to obtain the best fruit and the best conditions in which to turn it into great-value wine! The Tierra Antica range includes a collection of attractively packaged wines which represent wonderful value for money.
ABOUT THE VINEYARD:
The vines are vertically positioned and spaced at 1.5 x 2.2 metres apart, allowing easy access to the drip irrigated vines. The crops are green harvested to eliminate short shoots and concentrate the flavours in the berries. Most of the grapes are hand-picked, although a portion is mechanically harvested to ensure the optimal level of ripeness and freshness.
THE WINEMAKING PROCESS:
The grapes were carefully sorted and destemmed. Fermentation took place in temperature controlled stainless steel tanks for a period of 15 to 18 days, with three to four daily pump-overs. The wine was then stabilised for 15 to 20 days and earth-filtered prior to bottling.
OUR TASTING NOTES:
Complex with grilled red pepper, raspberry and blackberry fruit, dried plums mingled with tobacco and mocha. A Cabernet Sauvignon with a velvety texture, soft and fleshy tannins and a nicely integrated finish.
GRAPE VARIETY:
Cabernet Sauvignon 100%.
