Caliterra is a fusion of quality “calidad” and land “tierra”, of a passionate friendship with the environment, sustainable viticulture philosophy, Chilean roots and Colchagua traditions. Caliterra represents a passion for quality that aims to create environmentally friendly wines that are young, modern and innovative. They offer exceptional value.
Tasting Notes
Light yellow in colour, with a nose that shows good aromatic intensity with fresh fruit such as grapefruit and apricot accompanied by light notes of sweet spice and toast. Fresh, vibrant, and pleasingly lush on the palate, making this an excellent exponent of both the variety and the Casablanca Valley.
Method
Most of the wine is fermented in stainless steel tanks with 20% in second and third use barrels. 10% of the wine undergoes malolactic fermentation and rests in 2nd use barrels for 4 months.
