Limited Selection Sauvignon Blanc 2025
Trade Tools
Chile / Leyda Valley
The vineyards are situated in Chile’s Leyda Valley, approximately 15 km from the Pacific Ocean, on sloped hillsides with granite-based soils blended with clay. Vines are planted at a density of 5,555 plants per hectare and trained using a vertical shoot positioning system. Pruning is carried out to encourage low yields—up to 7,000 kg/ha—and promote earlier ripening. Canopy management is carefully tailored to provide shade for the grape clusters while allowing optimal aromatic development in the fruit.
Harvest Note
A rainy winter was followed by a moderate spring allowed healthy vegetative growth without excessive thermal stress. Summer 2025 was hot and required precision with vineyard management and harvest.
Tasting Note
Pale yellow with green highlights, bright and youthful. The nose shows ripe tropical and citrus fruit, mango and grapefruit, layered with herbal notes and a touch of spice. Fresh and fruit-driven on the palate, with lingering minerality through the finish.
