Beyond the work to rescue the vines and their traditions, Vigno wishes to celebrate and share the cultural heritage of the Maule, its people, and their community’s traditions. The grapes come from a vineyard of 4.5 hectares (11.1 acres) planted in 1955 and located in the Coastal Range. The vineyard is dry farmed, and the vines are planted on their original rootstock and are head trained. Vineyard is located on granite soil in the Coastal Range.
2013 was characterized by being a moderate vintage in terms of climate, not as warm as 2012 but closer to the maximum average in summer of 30 ºC. Frost in the spring of 2012 meant that yields were lower than an average year. No rain was registered over the summer months and temperatures started to drop in March resulting in wines of great precision and intensity. Aging was for 2 years in 5,000 Liter oak Foudres.
Ruby color. Fresh and intense with aromas of sherries and liquorice. The palate is vertical and vibrant with a great acidity, resulting in great tension and structure. Medium bodied and remarkable length.
