About the wine

"The red blend 2019 Pencopolitano was produced with 50% Cinsault and 50% País from old vines on granite and basalt soils. It fermented with 60% full clusters and was bottled at 12.5% alcohol after 10 months in oak and concrete vats. This is perfumed and ethereal, going more in the direction of Imaginador, with more finesse and sharper than previous years and with more País, going for a much more serious wine. The palate is vibrant and austere with pristine flavors." 93 points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

The wine has lifted aromas and is well-balanced with vibrant acidity, red fruits and soft tannins. The minerality from the granitic soils carries through from the nose to the long finish.

The ‘Pencopolitano’, (a term for someone who comes from Pedro’s native city of Concepción), is made of Cinsault sourced from several old vineyards in the towns of Guarilihue and Portezuelo. The old vines are planted on extremely rocky quartzic granite and are dry-farmed.

Pairs well with beef and venison.
