Emiliana's Signos de Origen is a site-specific project designed to showcase the unique relationship between grape varieties and their ideal micro-terroirs. For this elegant Syrah, the grapes are sourced from the La Quebrada vineyard in the Casablanca Valley, situated within the coastal influence of the Aconcagua region. Here, the vines are caressed by morning fogs and cooling breezes from the Pacific Ocean, which slow the ripening process and preserve the grape's natural acidity and bright, peppery aromatics. Rooted in decomposed granite soils with clay, the vines produce low yields of highly concentrated fruit. True to Emiliana's pioneering biodynamic philosophy, the vineyard is treated as a living organism, utilizing cover crops and animal biodiversity instead of synthetic chemicals. The wine is typically aged in a combination of French oak barrels and concrete eggs to respect the purity of the fruit, resulting in a Syrah of exceptional freshness, floral lift, and savory complexity.
