Winemaking Thanks to the mechanized night harvesting, the level of extraction of aromatic compounds from the grape skins increases. After destemming, the grapes are loaded into the pneumatic press. Only the juice from the first pressing is used for this wine. The juices from the La Cantera block are subjected to an enzymatic process of stabulation, where their lees are stirred several times a day for 5 or more days at a controlled temperature. The fruit from Olivos Camino undergoes a 48-hour cold maceration, and only the yolk must is racked to steel tanks. All components undergo two months of élevage on inactivated yeasts before blending. The wine is then clarified, cold stabilized and filtered.

Tasting Notes The idea behind the wine is to create "thiol layers", blending and maximizing thiol expression, so as to easily identify notes of grapefruit combined with passion fruit and boxwood. The palate is dominated by citrus and fruity notes, with a vertical and dynamic acidity that gives the sensation of moving across the palate towards the back of the tongue.
Selling Point Aromatic layers
Pairings oysters, tuna tiradito, green leaf salad with sautéed shrimp and mango.

The Story
La Cantera was born with the 2019 vintage and became part of the Botanic Series family. It is a Sauvignon Blanc that comes to represent the maximum aromatic expression of Casablanca as envisioned by our winemaking team in conjunction with New Zealand consultant Sam Harrop MW.
The grapes come from the "La Cantera" vineyard, planted on a red clay hillside of decomposed granite, facing east, very exposed to the sun and the sea breezes characteristic of the Casablanca Valley. The wine displays a ¨layers of thiols¨ showing the different aromatic faces of this grape variety.
