Chile

Made by cool dude Kiwi winemaker Grant Phelps this is a non typical Chile Savvy with interesting tropical fruit and saline nose. The 30% barrel fermentation gives it a lovely rounded mouthfeel. Peachy and fresh on the palate what`s not to like ? brilliant value.

A deep, bright violet-red colour, offering a very perfumed floral nosealong with the classic black pepper aroma typical of cold-climate Syrahs.

The wine was neither clarified nor filtered. A pale ruby-red colour, complex aromas of cherry intermingled with notes of mushroom, earth and tea-leaf. gently aromatic, intense fruit with crisp acidity, medium body, elegant tannins and fine structure, a long finish with a hint of salt.

The wine was aged in stainless steel tanks and fifth use Burgundy barrels for 15 months so as not to obscure its distinctive Atacaman identity. It was neither clarified nor filtered and so is slightly cloudy. Aromas of melon and apricot which evolve while drinking.
