Aylin Sauvignon Blanc 2022

Clarity and transparency is the meaning of its name

in the native Mapuche language. That is exactly what was aimed for with this wine: a clear and vibrant Sauvignon Blanc, with a strong mineral character

and an evident sense of origin.

Polkura Syrah 2017, 2018

The nose shows notes of tobacco, spices, and some herb, together with black fruit. The palate is very well balanced but intense at the same time. The wine has a very long finish and great complexity, with lots of layers of flavors ~ Sven Bruchfeld, Co Founder
