Leoncio Pais Valle del Itata 2021

$25.00
Excl. tax

A Columbian ex-pat Sommelier working with 150+ year old Pais vines in central Chile. Soft spice, red berry and a just there minerality. The palate is light with good acidity and a flavor set of raspberries, earth, and a delicate minerality

Mostly País with small amounts of Aramon and Cinsault from multiple parcels of own-rooted 150-year-old vines around Batuco and Magdalena Alto in the Itata Valley.

The vines are about 100m altitude and the soils are a mix of basaltic red clays. The grapes were destemmed and macerated on the skins for 8 days during fermentation before pressing with a small, manually operated vertical press into old Raulí foudres. Bottled without fining, filtering and with only a small sulfur addition.
