Viña Los Vascos
In the land of Los Vascos, cultivation is at our heart; cultivating not only vineyards but our dream to transform our vast land into a fruitful eco-system producing the most elegant Chilean wines. We are free spirited but remember our heritage. Our holistic approach encompasses and protects all - from our short-legged sheep clearing weeds without devouring precious grapes to our artisans honing hand-made knives to carefully tend the vines. We embody the Chilean paradox, meticulous in our work, easy going and warm in our personality. We are independent yet proud to cultivate our community because we are stronger and happier together.
The vintage
Climate was the byword for the 2020 vintage. Compared to the previous growing season, the harvests were 26 days earlier, which can be explained by a series of weather events. A winter characterized by the cold temperatures necessary for good budding, a warm spring, except for two days of frost that resulted in a natural thinning of the fruit, and a summer with maximum temperatures above 37°C combined with below-normal rainfall. Consequently, optimal conditions for harvesting the Sauvignon Blanc were between 11th and 18th February, when organoleptic maturity was at its peak.
