Garage Wine Co. Isidora Vineyard Semillon

Vintage: 2022
Description: "This semillon comes from an old vineyard of about a hectare planted about 65 years ago on decomposed granite (maicillo, as it's known in Chile) in the Sauzal zone, in the heart of the dry-farmed secano in Maule. The wine is fermented in amphorae and then aged in those same vessels and in used barrels for a year. Be patient, because this white takes time to reveal its aromas in the glass, but when it does, the herbal aromas and honey tones steal the show. The palate is succulent, although moderated by tense and linear acidity at the same time. One of those whites that you'll want to open in 10 years or more." - Patricio Tapia, Descorchados South American Wine Guide. Wine Advocate 94 Points - ".a little paler and more floral than the 2021 I tasted next to it, younger and less developed, a little rounder and softer, a little gentler, but this can change a lot in the bottle. I think it will eventually be as good as the 2021 feels now. 6,201 bottles produced. It was bottled in February 2023."
