Itata
2022

45% Moscatel, 30% Riesling, and 25% Semillon from a blend of old vines in Guarilihue, Itata; the vines date back to the early 1920's in Paleozoic granite soils. Hand-harvested fruit. After gentle crushing in a basket press, the must is fermented at cold temperatures with native yeast. Aged in neutral oak, then in bottle for three months before release.

90 points
"Unwooded and fermented on skins, Grand Itata is a cuvée of Moscatel, Riesling and Semillón. Suitably perfumed and intense, it has pear, yellow apple and lime flavours, a hint of tannic grip and a salty, earthy finish. 2023-26"
