Leo organically farms old bush vines in the steep hillsides of the Itata Valley in volcanic and granite soils. Some of his vines are over 100 years old but sadly, he lost most of them in the horrific fires of 2023. He uses native yeasts, old neutral barrels and adds the minimum of sulfur at bottling.
The Granítico Cinsault is dry-farmed in granite soils, hand-harvested and fermented in concrete tanks. This Cinsault is fresh and vibrant with an abundance of red flower, spice and red cassis fruit flavors with excellent concentration, light, dusty tannins and a refreshing finish. A real treat from a terroir-obsessed grower and winemaker.Suggested Pairing:
Stewed goat from Stubbys!
