VINEYARDS
San Antonio Valley.
15 years old.
San Antonio Valley (33º 28’67’’ S), 190m above sea level and 15km from the
coast. Inuenced by the breezes of the Pacic Ocean, this valley has a cold
climate, moderate rainfall and high humidity. The San Antonio soils have a sandy
loam texture and with presence of quartz in the prole.
Elimination of shoots during late spring and defoliation before setting. Selection
of the best bunches during harvest.
HARVEST
End of February / Beginning of March 2017.
22º brix.
Temperatures were higher than the annual average during the spring and during
the harvest also. However, the grapes achieved an optimum maturity due to the
breezes coming from the coast.
WINEMAKING
The bunches were hand picked and they were de-stemmed on reception at the
winery before crushing them. Cold fermentation took place in 40.000lts stainless
steel tanks for 15 days, in order to obtain greater body and freshness.
100% steel tanks.
September 2017.
WINEMAKER’S TASTING NOTES
Aromas of dry grass, lime and citrus. The attack is fresh and minerally, lling the
mouth with concentrated citrus avors. The bright acidity continues into a
refreshing nish.

In the bygone days of the sail ships, wine provided a safe drink for long voyages.
Dan Odell, a norwegian ARMADOR (shipowner), perpetuates this legacy
by making wines to sail from Chile across the seven seas.
