VINEYARDS:
Our entire vineyards are carefully tended with affection and with respect for the natural surroundings. The grapes in our Apaltagua Reserva Cabernet Sauvignon come from our own 60-hectare vineyard in Apalta in the Colchagua Valley, a place renowned for the perfect natural conditions required for the growth of grapevines.
CLIMATE:
The Colchagua Valley has a Mediterranean-style climate with a cold and rainy winter and a dry and warm summer. Marked temperature differences between day and night make an ideal condition for the growth of our wine grapes.
VINIFICATION:
The grapes are harvested by hand in April when they have reached optimal maturity. In order to extract color and aromas, the must is interfused with its skin for three days at low temperatures. The must is then fermented for seven days in stainless steel tanks with selected yeasts at temperatures ranging from 26° to 28°C (79° to 82°F). The wine is next left to macerate for an additional ten days to extract its fruity characteristics. Then, 50% of the wine is aged in oak barrels for six to eight months before its launch on the market.
