About this product +

Producer >

A globally respected hugely sustainable company that despite its size manages to retain a link to not only the land but also the people.  Emiliana’s has just over 600 hectares of organic and biodynamic vineyards. It is the investment in the future that is most impressive about this company. Their self-sustaining activities enable them to do not only what is right for the planet, but also all who live on it. Recent activities in the winery led by the sparky and talented Noelia Orts are moving into larger format, older oak barrels, concrete and fresher styles. Their Los Robles estate is a model of biodiversity and sustainability. They are still exploring the patchwork of soils that support the vines, seeking the best expression from their sites. ‘When nature expresses itself it inspires passions, provokes changes and opens new paths.’

Viticulture >

Emiliana has just over 600ha of organic and biodynamic vineyards. Their approach includes a raft of measures to ensure the production of healthy grapes and the long term viability of their vineyards. Amongst these are the employment of a mobile chicken coop so that the chickens can suppress any unwelcome insects, the planting of native trees and flowers to encourage biodiversity and the sowing of cover crops to prevent erosion and increase soil fertility. The grapes for this Chardonnay come from the pre-coastal Casablanca Valley in central Chile, where the cool climate is due to the influence of the Pacific and the Humboldt current with temperatures of 25°C in summer and 14°C in winter. The soils are composed of clay and sand and the vineyards are dry farmed.
