Emiliana's 'Salvaje' (meaning 'wild' in Spanish) is a pioneering natural wine crafted with no added sulfites, reflecting a deep commitment to low-intervention, organic viticulture in Chile's cool-climate Casablanca Valley within the Aconcagua region. This wine pays homage to the untamed biodiversity of the estate's vineyards, where native plants, beneficial insects, and animals thrive in a self-sustaining ecosystem. By co-fermenting dark, savory Syrah with a small touch of aromatic white Roussanne—a traditional technique borrowed from France's Northern Rhône Valley—the winemakers naturally stabilize the wine's deep color while infusing it with an unexpected, elegant floral lift. Fermented with native yeasts and bottled without preservation additives, Salvaje captures the raw, vibrant essence of its terroir.
