Vineyards
Our entire vineyards are carefully tended with affection and with respect for the natural surroundings. The grapes in our Pacifico Sur Estate Carmenere-Rosé wine come from our own 4 vineyards in the Central Valley in Chile. The vineyards were planted in flat and low ridges in places with extraordinary natural conditions perfect for the growth of grapevines.

Climate
Central Valley has a Mediterranean-style climate with a cold, rainy winter and warm, dry summer. Marked temperature differences between day and night make ideal conditions for the growth of our wine grapes.

Vinification
The grapes are harvested by hand early in the mornings in April when they have reached optimal maturity. The grapes are macerated at low temperatures during a 12-hour period, and then the must is separated from the skins to start a clean fermentation in stainless steel tanks with selected yeasts at temperatures ranging from 14° to 16°C (57° to 61°F) during a twenty-day period. The wine is next placed in stainless steel tanks for 3 months before being bottled and launched on the market.
