Cedar, dusty earth, dried herbs, strawberry and raspberry, all wrapped in a gauze of rock dust and pulverized dried flowers. Amazing acidity and a faint saltiness in the finish. 100+ year old Cinsault bush vines from the nooks and crannies of Itata. Dr. Terroir (soil geologist Pedro Parra) is putting his terroir where his mouth is. Roughly 30% whole cluster, but 100% delicious.
