Cacique Maravilla Gutiflower Pet Nat 2021 750ml

Manuel Moraga and his family live just outside of Yumbel in the Bio Bio River Valley of Chile. They are the seventh generation to look after their 80 hectare farm, 16 of which under vine. All vines are dry farmed, organically and characterized by its soils of "trumao" (volcanic sand formed by redeposited ash). Their vineyard was the 33rd registered vineyard in the history of Chile which speaks for just how old some of their vines are. In the winery all of the work is done manually meaning no destemmer, only "zaranda" (traditional bamboo screen); no presses, only free run juice; no pumps, only gravity. In addition, the wines are made naturally without using any type of oenological products, including sulphur.
This petnat is made from dry farmed and organically grown 68% Moscatel de Alejandría and 16% Corinto (aka Chasselas) and 16% Torontel, made similarly to their rosé petnat "Chacolí" this is destemmed, macerated for 1 day with the skins then the free run juice is transferred into fiber glass tanks using gravity where it remains for 2 months before being bottled without filtering, fining, disgorging or sulfur. FYI - Can be very explosive upon opening
