Description:
De Martino Viejas Tinajas Cinsault is a remarkable wine that showcases the ancient winemaking technique of clay fermentation and the unique character of Cinsault grapes. Made from old-vine Cinsault, this wine undergoes fermentation in traditional clay amphorae known as "tinajas," allowing the grapes to express their truest essence. With a vibrant ruby colour, the wine entices with aromas of red berries, floral notes, and a touch of earthiness.
93+ Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
There is a wild and rustic side to the 2019 Las Olvidadas Mezcla Tinta, even more noticeable in the 2020 I also tasted. It comes from their vineyard in Santa Cruz de Guarilihue where the ancient vines of País and San Francisco vines are intermixed in the field. 2019 was a dry vintage in Itata, but they managed to keep the wine at 13% alcohol and with mellow acidity. The grapes fermented together after being hand destemmed with a zaranda destemmer like the traditional Pipeño wines, without any additions. The wine was put in barrel for malolactic and 18 months of aging. It's perfumed and intriguing, light to medium-bodied and with a strong personality. 4,371 bottles and 50 magnums were filled in October 2020.
