Purplish-ruby-red in colour with a quietly classic nose of strawberries and cherries that accentuate the freshness of this wine. The elegant oak lends a touch of vanilla yet leaves the fruit in the foreground. Full and juicy with notes of leather, violet and spice. This wine has tremendous balance and a lush, lingering persistence.

Emiliana is one of Chile's most exciting producers and pioneers in organic and biodynamic winemaking. Since 1998, this Chilean winery has been producing award-winning wines from almost 1,000 hectares of vineyards in prime sites including Casablanca, Maipo, Cachapoal, Colchagua and Bio Bio.

Its spectacular biodynamic vineyard and winery at Los Robles is a model that attracts visiting viticulturalists and winemakers from across the world. Emiliana's innovative and natural-leaning wines are made with great care and attention and the results are inspiring.

The vines are situated in Emiliana's organic vineyard at Los Robles; the vineyard planted on the foothills of a mountainous outcropping in Lo Moscoso. Vertically positioned vines planted on their own roots (ungrafted) enjoy a southern exposure.

Individual grapes are gently dropped into the fermentation tanks where they undergo a 5-day pre-fermentation cold maceration at 8ºC. Alcoholic fermentation takes place solely with native yeasts in stainless steel and ovoid concrete tanks (eggs) with temperatures that varied between 24º and 26ºC and a program of pumpovers and punchdowns in accordance with enological criteria. Total vinification time is 20 days and malolactic fermentation take place natu rally in barrels and the ovoid tanks. The new wine is then aged for 15 months and stabilized naturally, without treatments. It is lightly filtered with a 3-5-micron filter prior to bottling.

Pairs very well with all kinds of meat, beans, vegetable stews, and corn or potato dishes. Also a great companion for pasta with tomato sauce and highly seasoned dishes with a variety of spices.
