Reviews:

• Patricio Tapia: This is a field blend that represents what there is in a very old vineyard planted more than 80 years ago in the Apalta zone. All of the grapes were harvested at the same time and co-fermented, and then left on their skins for eight months. This wine has power, potency, and rough texture, accompanied by firm acidity that refreshes everything in its wake.

Producer Information

Heritage and enterprise are hallmarks of Santa Rita, one of Chile’s premier wine estates. Founded in 1880 by Domingo Fernandez in Chile’s Maipo Valley, this historic property was among the first to pioneer plantings of European grape varieties in Chile. In 1980, it was acquired by its present owner, Ricardo Claro, under whom Santa Rita has reaped the rewards of continuous investment, resulting in a period of impressive growth, during which the winery has consolidated its position in the vanguard of Chile’s most successful and innovative estates. Initiatives include the highly successful launch of Santa Ritas 120 Series of wines and a range of ultra-premium wines, notably the highly acclaimed Casa Real and Triple C. Wide-ranging enhancements embrace the purchase of choice new vineyards, plantings with top quality clones, improved trellising and irrigation, balanced viticulture, restricted yields, later harvesting, individual block farming, small-lot vinification, and an increased emphasis on sustainable agriculture. Today Santa Rita exports to more than 70 countries worldwide. The property accounts for outstanding vineyards in Chiles most important appellations – the Maipo Valley; Casablanca; Rapel; Apalta; Leyda and Curico – enabling access to diverse climates and terrain.
