DESCRIPTION
Tabali Pedrogoso Gran Reserva Syrah 2023 comes from the Valle de Limarí near the ocean, on volcanic and limestone soils. Driven by a cool and windy climate, this Syrah develops an elegant and structured profile, combining aromatic intensity and mineral freshness. Carefully vinified and aged for 10 months in French oak barrels, it reveals an ample wine with notes of black fruits, a beautiful tension, and a long finish. Established in 2002 in Limarí, on the edge of the Atacama Desert, Tabalí is a pioneer of viticulture in this valley. The estate crafts wines that span Chile from east to west within the same valley, from its high-altitude Roca Madre vineyard in the Andes to the coastal Talinay vineyards near the Pacific Ocean. The range is crafted by winemaker Felipe Muller and viticulturist Hector Rojas.
On the nose, intense aromas of plums and black cherries, enhanced by mineral nuances and a subtle touch of spices. On the palate, an ample and structured attack, concentrated black fruits, beautiful freshness, and a balanced core with a long and harmonious finish. It pairs well with Peking duck or stews with sweet spices. Serve at 16°C. Aging potential of 5 years.
REGION
Coquimbo
Chile
Coquimbo is the northernmost wine area in Chile, with barely 2,000 hectares of vines. What the region lacks in size, it more than makes up for in character and individuality. Its three subregions, Limarí, Elqui and Choapa, offer a remarkable diversity of terroirs.
In the Limarí Valley, where vines have been grown for over 400 years, limestone soils, low rainfall and a morning sea fog regularly followed by a warm, sunny afternoon give the wines a rare and distinctive minerality. Further north, the Elqui Valley, at the gateway to the Atacama Desert, produces bright, intensely aromatic wines, especially Sauvignon Blanc and Syrah, where the secret to successful viticulture lies in altitude. The vineyards receive far higher levels of sunlight than any European wine region, which shows in the vibrancy and intensity of the wines.
From the saline minerality of Limarí whites to the sunny, concentrated reds of Elqui, Coquimbo stands out as one of the most fascinating wine regions of the New World: confidential, demanding and truly singular.
