She uses stems and waste for compost for the vineyards, everything is organic and dry farmed. Both native and cultured yeast. 40,000 bottles per year. Ripe black fruit, all the wines show a minty note. I'm told they have eucalyptus trees all throughout certain areas of Chile. Alcohol elevated, tannin well intergrated, all of her wines show restraint, but ripeness. Almost a gun powder note to it.

That’s got some structure to it. 100% Cabernet franc. Same acidity and dry farming and the wines achieve a low natural PH and high acidity. Much more fresh and fruity. 20% new oak on this 80% used.

1/12/2019 - scorbett Likes this wine:
Nose: cherry koolaid with a sprig of mint… in a field of wild flowers with just a hint of barnyard.
Palate: gorgeously clean/fresh sour red fruits held together with a firm earthiness.
Once it opened it was taken over by that aged wine aroma/taste. It's a splendid time to drink this now, with a foot in both worlds.
