The Limarí Valley, part of Chile’s Coquimbo Region, lies just 21 kilometers (13 miles) from the Pacific Ocean. This proximity ensures a cool maritime climate, with consistent breezes that moderate temperatures, preserving the grapes’ natural acidity and vibrant flavors.
The vineyard, planted 20 years ago, is managed with VSP trellising and Guyot pruning systems to optimize canopy management. Its soils, composed of clay with a high percentage of calcium carbonate, provide excellent drainage and impart a distinctive minerality to the wine. This terroir is ideal for producing balanced, elegant Pinot Noir with complex aromatics and a fresh, structured palate.
