The 'Novas' range from Emiliana is named after the Latin word for 'new stars,' paying homage to the ancient astronomers who observed the night sky to map the natural cycles of the earth. This celestial connection is central to Emiliana's philosophy, where organic and biodynamic vineyard practices align farming with cosmic and terrestrial rhythms. Sourced from the diverse terroirs of Chile's Central Valley, this Gran Reserva Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot blend thrives under a Mediterranean climate. Warm, sun-drenched days are tempered by cool evening breezes sweeping down from the Andes and in from the Pacific Ocean, allowing the grapes to achieve optimal phenolic ripeness while retaining vibrant natural acidity. The resulting wine is aged carefully to integrate its structured tannins, delivering a pure, expressive, and harmonious representation of Chile's signature red varieties.
