Tasting Notes
Sourced from the Aconcagua Costa appellation, the 2016 Sauvignon Blanc is from a plot in the village of Quillota called El Pedregal (stony) that was planted in 2006. It fermented in stainless steel, with 10% whole clusters pressed and fermented in French barriques, where it matured with the fine lees for five months. It has pungent herbal flavors and a citric touch. The palate is dry, somehow austere, with a distinct bitterness in the finish. It feels very young, a little raw. I'd wait one year. Drink Date: 2018-2020. Score - 90. (Luis Guti�rrez, robertparker.com, April 28, 2017)
