Veramonte

Pinot noir - Reserva 2021

Casablanca Valley

Chili- Vallée de Casablanca

      

Veramonte is inseparable from its creator, Augustin Huneeus. Born in Santiago de Chile, he is one of the rare Chilean professionals to have dedicated his whole life to vines and wine. It was in 1960 that Augustine became manager of Concha y Toro, then a small estate, which under his leadership would become Chile's largest producer. In 1971, the political situation would push him to seek other opportunities outside his native country. As Managing Director of Seagram, he will then supervise the activities of this company in 7 countries including the United States. In 1985, he became shareholder and president of Franscican Estate, a struggling estate which he would turn around into a producer of high-end wines.
During this period, he also developed two brands that are now world famous, Caliterra and Errazuriz. In 1989 he and his wife bought a property which he transformed into a wine estate called Quintessa. 1990 marks his return to Chile where he was one of the very first to identify the Casablanca Valley as a region of international quality wine production when there were only 25 hectares of vineyard on site. It was there that he created the Veramonte estate. The estate now covers 420 hectares and a good proportion of the grapes are sold to large Chilean estates. The vineyards are certified in organic farming. Today Veramonte is part of the Gonzales Byass Group, a Spanish family business founded in 1835.

Grape varieties:

100% pinot noir.

Tasting Notes:

This wine is defined as pure, delicate and precise pinot juice. Because we did not try to extract too much or to age too long and especially without new barrels which would have masked the delicacy of the fruit. It gives a very spicy impression with clove and cherry. This wine which exalts aromas and flavors of cherry and raspberry shows a delicate juice with a silky texture and particularly delicious. The palate has luscious and meaty tannins with a smooth, juicy and energetic feel. The finish is fresh.

Wine style:

Fruity and delicate red wine.

Food and wine :

Farm guinea fowl, thyme butter under the skin. Duck hearts with vine shoots, pinot noir sauce and morello cherry.

Aging potential in your cellar:

4 years.

Analytic :

75 cl - 14.5% volume

Contains sulfites

Viñedos Veramonte

Veramonte's history began in the 1990s while Casablanca was still an unexplored valley. Forty hectares of white sauvignon were planted, giving birth to the first cellar in this region. Very quickly, Veramonte ventured to explore other varieties such as chardonnay, pinot noir, merlot and syrah.
The project founder was Agustín Hunneus and González Byass took over in 2016.
Today, with more than 30 years of history, we have become a certified organic and biodynamic winery dedicated to the development of fresh and authentic wines.
Sustainability, innovation and the search for excellence in every detail are some of the most important values in this cellar.

Veramonte has two estates in some of Chile's most famous wineries: one in the Casablanca valley and the other in Marchigüe in the Colchagua valley.
- Casablanca Valley is a valley with a cold coastal climate; the property is at the foot of the coastal mountain range. The vineyards are surrounded by 2,500 hectares of native forest and are influenced by the cool breeze and morning fog of the Pacific Ocean, which moderates temperatures and provides the ideal conditions for growing fresh climate vines. On flat surfaces, soils are composed of decomposed granite and clay with good drainage; roots can reach nearly 6 meters deep. Granite with quartz and mica are abundantly found on the southern slope, at the foot of the coastal mountain range. The vines in this area have much lower roots, about 1.5 to 2 meters.
- The Colchagua valley is about 150 km from Santiago in the south. It is a warm area of the central valley, between the two mountain ranges, the Andes and the coast. The Marchigüe estate is located in the coldest place in Colchagua. It offers soft slopes where the soils consist of granite broken down by place, and red clay in other places. This valley is perfectly suited for red grape varieties such as carmenère, cabernet sauvignon, cabernet franc and small verdot.

The wines have been made according to the principles of biodynamic agriculture since 2014.
