A blend of Garnacha (Grenache) and Syrah aged in French oak for 18 months. The thin-skinned but fruit driven Garnacha marries beautifully with the dark and spicy black fruited Syrah. Intense flavours that linger and linger on the palate. The newest addition to Alvaro’s Pura Fe range of Chilean wines.
One of our favorite regions, the Rhone Valley in France, inspired this blend. The goal was to achieve that complexity while also expressing our Maipo terroir. The Garnacha vines grow in alluvial basalt rocks, once part of the Inca River, creating layers of aromatics, hints of fresh fruit, and floral notes. With the addition of Syrah, the wine is lifted with dark berry notes and a medium body structure.
