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
The start of the 2019 season was about 50% less rainy than usual (with 332 mm of rainfall), for which we were able to compensate with our irrigation system. There were no frosts in the spring, or heavy rainy rain, and temperatures did not exceed 28°C; thanks to these exceptional conditions, the vines remained healthy. The summer was hot, with unusually high temperatures of up to 40°C at the end of January, enabling the grapes to gain in concentration.
Varietals
