Chile

Clean and floral orange wine from the Itata region of Chile. Mainly Torontel, Chasselas, Semillon, and Muscat d’Alexandria from organic, dry-farmed bush vines ranging from 100 to 200 years old. Grapefruit, orange pith, and sweet autumn clematis notes.

Modern California know-how meets traditional artisanal practice at Kingston Family Vineyard. In this bottle the Syrah is a scotch moody and largely driven earth and spice touched by floral aromatics.

Chile, it turns out, produces some very tasty Sauvignon Blanc, and it happens to be super value priced. Fruity, of course, but also with good refreshing sizzle.
