Chile is a land of ice and fire. The four seasons are very marked, with cold and rainy winters - and dry, prolonged summers without rain. Luckily, in spite of these blazing summers which help to ripen the grapes, the vines remain watered by the cool snow melt flowing down from the mountains. This makes for beautiful wines like this Merlot, which has a deliciously fresh character due to the coastal vineyards where the fruit comes from.
