✨ Technical Specifications
Hailing from the cool-climate Aconcagua Costa region, Errazuriz's Single Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc is a testament to the estate's pioneering spirit in exploring coastal terroirs. Sourced primarily from the Manzanar Vineyard, located just 12 kilometers from the Pacific Ocean, the vines benefit from the chilling influence of the Humboldt Current. Morning mists and cool ocean breezes slow down the ripening process, allowing the grapes to develop intense aromatic complexity while retaining a vibrant, crisp acidity. The soils, rich in metamorphic slate and schist, impart a distinctive saline minerality to the wine. Fermented in stainless steel tanks to preserve its pure fruit character, this Sauvignon Blanc showcases a brilliant harmony of citrus, green apple, and subtle herbal notes, representing a modern, elegant expression of Chilean coastal winemaking.
