✨ wine.spec_sheet
Hailing from the cool-climate Aconcagua Costa estate, located just 12 kilometers from the Pacific Ocean, the Errazuriz Costa Sauvignon Blanc is a testament to coastal viticulture. The vineyard is defined by its unique metamorphic soils, particularly schist, which is rare in Chile and infuses the wine with a distinct mineral, flinty edge. The cold Humboldt Current brings morning mists and cooling breezes that slow down grape ripening, preserving intense acidity and developing complex, vibrant citrus and herbal aromas. Hand-harvested and fermented primarily in stainless steel tanks, this wine showcases the pioneering spirit of Errazuriz as they pushed the boundaries of traditional Chilean winemaking toward the ocean's edge.
