✨ Technical Specifications
Hailing from the pioneering vineyards of the Aconcagua region, the Errazuriz Estate Sauvignon Blanc is a vibrant testament to Chile's cool-climate coastal influence. Benefiting from the chilly morning breezes of the Pacific Ocean and the cold Humboldt Current, the grapes develop a crisp, expressive character. Fermented entirely in stainless steel tanks at low temperatures to preserve its intense aromatic profile, this wine reflects the estate's dedication to showcasing pure varietal expression. It weaves a story of modern Chilean viticulture, where the rugged coastal terroir meets meticulous, temperature-controlled winemaking to produce a white wine of remarkable tension, brightness, and mineral energy.
🍾 About the Producer
Established in 1870 by Don Maximiano Errázuriz, Viña Errázuriz is an architect of modern Chilean viticulture. Sited in the Aconcagua Valley, the estate traverses diverse mesoclimates, moving from warm, alluvial inland terraces framed by the Andes to cool-climate maritime slopes in Aconcagua Costa. Viticulture emphasizes precision farming certified under the Wines of Chile Sustainability Code. Errázuriz revolutionized Chile's global standing through the historic 2004 Berlin Tasting orchestrated by Eduardo Chadwick, alongside longtime Technical Director Francisco Baettig. While internationally revered for red icons, Errázuriz’s white wine program demonstrates profound terroir mastery, especially along the coastal schist soils of the Las Pizarras vineyard. Benchmark white expressions like Las Pizarras Chardonnay deliver striking mineral reduction, crystalline acidity, and tension, while the Max and Costa Sauvignon Blancs showcase vibrant, citrus-driven linear precision that highlights the estate's exceptional Pacific maritime influence.
