Winemaker
Leonardo Erazo's A Los Viñateros Bravos project draws attention to Itata's small growers and old vineyard traditions. He works to preserve that agricultural heritage, placing the people and their vines at the centre of the project.
Wine
Granítico Blanco combines Muscat of Alexandria and Sémillon in a field blend. Peach and a floral lift, with a fresh palate and a little tactile grip. Muscat supplies fragrance while Sémillon gives breadth. Drink with grilled fish, vegetables or gently spiced food; this is a white that welcomes a proper meal.
Origin
Itata lies in southern Chile, where old vineyards occupy weathered granite ground. Winter rain and dry summers underpin the area's long tradition of dry farming. The cooler southern setting helps the white grapes hold freshness alongside their aromatic fruit.
