“It's an incredible value for the price.” - The Wine Advocate

“So incredibly well put together with a Sancerre-like character.” - JancisRobinson.com

It was a Friday evening and we thought we better taste this before closing for the weekend. We took the sample bottle out of the fridge, took one sip and immediately downed tools and headed to our favourite BYOB sushi restaurant, because we knew we had to introduce this wine to the best red dragon roll this side of Tokyo. It was a joyful occasion with many more introductions (spider roll, hamachi carpaccio, tuna tataki) and everything worked perfectly, the Sauvignon Blanc entertaining the food without being domineering, the sushi pulling the wine into its circle of friends and letting them bounce off each other, just as we did. 12.3% alc.

Press review:

JancisRobinson.com: "Super-fresh, mineral nose with lime and mandarin-skin notes. Fabulous freshness and acidity with a linear mid palate, slight salinity as well on the finish. So incredibly well put together, with a chalky note on the finish, there is a Sancerre-like character with the shell-like notes that come through on the finish. Drink now-2029." 17 points

The Wine Advocate (previous vintage): “Has to be one of the best bargain whites in Chile. This is always bottled unoaked to keep the varietal purity and the influence from the limestone soils and the proximity to the sea. It comes from vines in Talinay where the soils have more limestone and the sea influence is stronger, where the vines were planted in 2006. This is the top of the three Sauvignon Blancs from Talinay; all three have a common profile - very pale, sharp, austere, mineral and saline.” 95 points
