DESCRIPTION
CO CO PA Cinsault 2019 comes from a small parcel of old Cinsault vines estimated to be 80 years old, grown as bush vines (goblet), unirrigated and ungrafted, on granitic soils with a 10% slope on the coastal range of Itata. Aged for 15 months in a blend of used oak barrels and stainless steel tanks. Ultra-limited production of 2,994 bottles. Cinsault was brought from the south of France to Chile during the first half of the 19th century. CO CO PA is an artisanal project dedicated to the traditional grape varieties of the Itata Valley, one of Chile's oldest wine-growing regions. The vines, unirrigated and ungrafted on granitic soils, are cultivated on the slopes of the coastal range in Itata. Limited bottle productions to preserve the authenticity and expression of the terroir.
On the nose, red fruits (raspberry, strawberry) with a floral touch and white pepper. On the palate, supple tannins, a vertical structure that keeps the wine fresh, complex, with a beautiful typicity and a pleasant finish. It pairs well with light meats or Mediterranean cuisine. Artisanal and limited production.
REGION
Itata Valley
Chile
The Itata Valley, in the Ñuble region of central Chile, is one of the oldest wine areas in the country. In the indigenous Mapuche language, Itata means "abundant pasture". The soils of the different appellations in this alluvial valley are sandy and rich in minerals and volcanic sediment. These natural elements support the traditional grapes of the region, País (red) and Muscat (white). Today you will also find Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon, Carménère, Merlot, Sémillon and Tintorera. The Chilean estates of the region craft wines of great quality.
