Tasting Notes

Elegant and fresh blue berries aromas, floral notes and hints of vanilla. Well balanced with round tannins and some creamy oak notes on the finish.

The Producer

The family owned Viña San Esteban vineyards and winery are located in the La Florida and Paidahuen vineyards, in the town of San Esteban in the Aconcagua Valley in central Chile. Privileged soil conditions and the Aconcagua’s microclimate, together with quality technological practices in the vineyards and the winery, produce quality grapes and wines which are recognised internationally.

In Situ is a ‘terroir project’ with the vineyards located at the eastern end of the Aconcagua river Valley. The warm daytime temperatures provide ideal ripening conditions for the grapes, while the altitude and the breezes that descend from the Andes mountains at night provide the cooling required to achieve the balancing acidity necessary for great wines.

Vinification

Hand-picked, fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel (25ºC) it was macerated for 25 days and then aged in 225-litre French and American oak barrels for 12 months. After bottling this wine was aged for at least 6 additional months before release.
