The grapes for this wine come from ancient vines (over 100 years-old) of Cabernet Sauvignon; in addition, it has Syrah, Carménère, Merlot and Petit Verdot also from the Maule Valley, with average yield of vineyard of 6 tonnes per hectare. The garage winemaking was completely handmade. This assemblage intends to be a faithful representation of the fruit from the Maule Valley. The varieties were vinified separately, mostly fermented with native yeasts and had a long maceration of 35 days. This wine was not filtered and unfined, it is a natural wine. It was oak aged a 100%, for 10 months in French oak barrels, and it can be enjoyed now or cellared for over 8 years.
