The vineyards in the Casablanca Valley are closen to the Pacific Ocean, influenced by the coastal breeze, which moderates temperatures. The land is basically formed by hills that increase in height as it goes east towards the Coastal Mountain Range.

The temperatures are cooler, causing a slower ripening in the fruit and therefore, greater character in flavour and aroma, for white varieties like Chardonnay. The grapes come from vineyards that are approximately 12 years old in the Casablanca estate.
The grapes were transported to our Nancagua winery for vinification in stainless steel tanks at low temperatures with selected yeasts, pumpovers, and delicate lees stirring to reach the desired final result.
