✨ wine.spec_sheet
Hailing from the breathtaking, wild frontier of Chile's southern Austral region near Lago Ranco, Casa Silva's Fervor Extra Brut represents a daring viticultural triumph. In this extreme cool-climate zone, where active volcanoes shadow pristine glacial lakes, the Silva family pioneered some of the southernmost vineyards in the world. Crafted using the traditional method, this sparkling wine undergoes extended lees aging to develop its signature complexity. The unique volcanic soils and dramatic diurnal temperature shifts of Patagonia impart a vibrant, piercing acidity and a distinct mineral backbone to the wine, capturing the untamed energy and 'fervor' of this remote terroir.
