2021 Galan Vineyards Reserva Privada Sauvignon Blanc 0.75 Ltr. Blanco
picture of

Beautiful yellow color. Remarkably aromatic nose with dusty aromas of citrus fruits, passion fruits, freshly cut grass and a fine touch of asparagus accompanied by more subtle hints of anise and vanilla. Fresh and luscious mouthfeel with a nice balance between fruit and wood aging. Long lasting finish with sufficient acidity teasing for more.

Its aromatic and slightly spicy character makes it ideal with Asian fish preparations, curries, fried fish with Hollandaise sauce, asparagus with salmon or à la Flamande, but also white meat and poultry.

climate

Located quite southerly between ideal latitudes, Maule Valley is slightly cooler than other major wine regions in Chile. It enjoys slightly more precipitation that falls mainly in winter and many hours of sunshine. It is warm during the day and the temperature drops sharply at night, making it probably the most privileged wine valley in Chile. The general characteristics are comparable to a Mediterranean climate.

soil

The vineyards are located in Maule Valley near Curicó. The Maule River supplies the valley with alluvial sedimentary rocks. The soils are quite varied and consist of granite, red clay, loam and gravel. The soils on the slopes are poorer and with good water management. In the valley itself on the river, the subsoil is richer with higher yields.

vinification

Hand-picked grapes in the cool of the morning. After soft pressing, the fermentation is started under low temperature in stainless steel vats. Then part of the wine is transferred to barrels, the rest remains in stainless steel. After a few months, the wines are blended back and bottled.
