Echeverria "No Es Pituko" Orange, Maule Valley, Chile 2025

FROM T. EDWARD:

THE WINE: 100% Sauvignon Blanc. This Chilean orange is made from single vineyard, old-vine sauvignon blanc that has been wild fermented and left on the skins for 60 days and bottled unfiltered with no sulfur added. On the palate, you’ll detect smoky stone fruit and citrus with savory wild herbs and a nice grip.

THE PRODUCER: The vineyards at Viña Echeverría are located in the Curicó Valley and the rows are planted in an east-westerly direction to potentiate the sun’s exposure. We work with a model of micro viticulture, which means that each plot, no more than half a hectare, is identified according to its terroir and microclimate and planted, pruned, irrigated and harvested accordingly, resulting in grapes of optimum quality and flavor.
