The Colchagua Valley stands out for its Mediterranean climate with four well-defined seasons. The summers are hot and dry, which encourages proper ripening without interruptions. The valley ends at the Pacific Ocean, which has a positive effect on the vineyards because it cools the valley during the hot season. This wine was aged for 10 months, 10% in French oak foudres, 40% in stainless steel tanks and 50% in French barrels.
