Notes on the Wine
Moderate alcohol content, refreshing and ideal for accompanying food. This Cabernet Sauvignon proves to be very fresh, with hints of tobacco, cherries and other berries. The palate is refreshing with a pleasant acidity and perfect balance.
Notes on the Producer
With more than 740 acres of estate-owned organic vineyards, winemaker Marcelo Retamal, a terroir-hunter, has scoured Chile in pursuit of site-specific vineyards best suited to specific grape varieties. Estate and grower fruit from a repertoire of 20 family growers in 8 appellations is used to create a portfolio of varietally accurate, full-bodied, and elegant wines with unique characteristics that are a true reflection of their origin.
In 1998, De Martino embarked on a pioneering project to convert their traditional viticultural practices to 100% organic out of respect for the land. De Martino celebrated their first harvest of certified organic grapes in 2001; today, they are the second largest producer of organic wines in Chile.
