Tributo means homage, and therefore, with Tributo, Viña Caliterra honours the quality of the land and the people whom became one with this wine, and all of the details that come together in perfect harmony to create an exceptional wine. Each bottle is a unique example of the Caliterra philosophy because it reflects the harmony between the environment and the friendly human work in the vineyard. Belonging to Great Rapel Valley located in the Bernardo O’Higgins administrative region, named after one of the Chilean founder fathers, the famous Colchagua Valley is characterized by its geography, its great diversity of soils and Mediterranean climate, where cool nights and gentle breezes from the coast of Pacific and the Andes, makes this region an ideal location for the production of high-end red varieties.
