✨ Technical Specifications
Hailing from the cool, ocean-influenced vineyards of the Aconcagua Costa, Errazuriz Max Sauvignon Blanc Reserva is a brilliant testament to Chile's coastal winemaking revolution. Named in honor of the estate's visionary founder, Don Maximiano Errázuriz, this wine captures the essence of the maritime breezes and the cold Humboldt Current that sweep through the valley. The grapes are grown on unique schist and clay soils, which impart a distinct mineral tension to the wine. Fermented primarily in stainless steel tanks to preserve its pristine fruit character, this Sauvignon Blanc showcases the estate's dedication to precision, elegance, and a vibrant expression of coastal terroir.
🍾 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.
