These wines are the result of Viña Errázuriz's exploration of the Aconcagua Valley, seeking the best and purest expression of each variety. Wines that show their true sense of origin.

Two geographical landmarks make up this line: Mount Aconcagua, the highest mountain in the Western Hemisphere, and the Pacific Ocean, with the coldest waters in the world. From this inspiration Aconcagua Alto is born, from the highest point of the Aconcagua Valley, and Aconcagua Costa, located just 12 km from the Pacific Ocean.

Notes of fresh red fruit with smooth balsamic touches; pleasant tension, fresh with polished, round tannins, very elegant.

The grapes for Aconcagua Costa Pinot Noir were sourced from the Aconcagua Costa vineyard, located 12 kilometres from the Pacific Ocean. Planted by Viña Errázuriz in 2005 and 2009, the soil is composed of a thin layer of loamy texture and placed on a clay and metamorphic rock (slate/schist), providing the mineral notes present in the wines that are grown in these vineyards.

Grapes were hand-picked between February 26th and 28th, double sorted and crushed, then placed in open-top stainless steel tanks (15% whole-clusters). Before starting the fermentation process, the grapes underwent a 3 to 5 days cold soak at 8° Celsius. Fermentation was carried out with native yeasts only, by which the wine develops complex and distinctive aromas and flavours. Complete skins contact, including post-fermentation maceration, was 12 to 20 days. The final blend is aged for 11 months in French oak barrels, 15% new.
