Primo Semillón

Primo de Los Vascos is about going into our roots and exploring the land we inhabit to discover new Chilean terroirs and grapes. This inspires us to find new expressions of wines and spark collaboration with local growers who feel like family.

This vintage was characterized by moderate rainfall, a little less than usual, and continued with a very cold spring. The beginning of the summer was cold, but temperatures gradually increased and remained very stable throughout the season, without reaching extremes, which allowed us to obtain an ideal ripeness resulting in great balance and quality. The entire block was harvested by hand on March 1st.

Grapes are hand-harvested and immediately cooled and pressed upon arrival at the winery. After cold decanting at 40-45⁰F, the clear must is separated from the sediments and transferred to cement eggs and barrels where fermentation occurs. After fermentation, the wine is left to age on its lees for one year.

Pale yellow colour with greenish highlights. The nose is complex, opening on delicate aromas of lemon and orange peel, followed by notes of white flowers and hints of dried fruit. On the palate, a harmonious balance is struck between refreshing acidity and ample volume. The wine culminates in a lingering finish, leaving a subtle aftertaste reminiscent of grapefruit.
