To express the terroir of Apalta is our mission, so our winemaking philosophy remains a very natural process with minimal intervention. Our key points are 100% hand harvesting in small cases of 14 kilos and strict fruit selection by optical state of the art grape selection by Vistalys. A gentle extraction and a judicious use of oak to preserve the fruit but integrate the complexity that a wine of this quality deserves.  All fermentations were made with native yeasts.
 

Apalta is located 170 Kilometers South West of Santiago in the Colchagua Valley.  The Vineyard is situated on a North to South exposure, which is quite rare in Chile.  This geography is responsible for the conditions that ensure balance for our vines and a slow ripening for the grapes.  Apalta has special meso-climate that is different from the rest of Colchagua Valley. Its climate could be described as Semi-dry Mediterranean; with a winter only rainy season and a long dry summer season.
