The organically grown grapes for Novas Viognier Gran Reserva come from vines grown in the Casablanca Valley, located 100km north west of Chile's capital, Santiago. The vineyards are only 30km from the Pacific Ocean, so cooling sea breezes and ocean fogs help to moderate the long hot summer days and lengthen the ripening season, allowing the grapes to develop greater complexity of flavour, whilst retaining acidity. After fermentation the wine is aged in oak barrels for 8 months to add a creamy texture. Expect aromas of stone fruits, such as apricot and peach, as well as honey blossom before a palate that shows good body and beautifully balanced acidity.
