2021 Gustavo Riffo 'Vina Lomas De Llahuen' Pipeño (Pais) 1L, Valle del Itata, Chile
$19.99
100% País from an organically farmed single parcel called Parmenia. These own-rooted vines are roughly 200 years old, densely planted on granitic clay-loam soils, and are unirrigated. Winemaking is very traditional: the grapes were destemmed, macerated on their skins during a roughly 2-week fermentation in stainless steel, pressed, and then the wine rested in stainless steel for 11 months. Bottled unfined and unfiltered, with a small amount of SO2.
