The wine comes from one special plot in the Marchigüe Valley, on the western side of the Colchagua Valley, just 25 kilometers from the Pacific Ocean. Thanks to the granite-rich soils, cool coastal climate, and extremely low yields, a wine of exceptional concentration, elegance, and complexity is produced. Taita is exclusively made in the best vintages and in very limited quantities (only 3,788 bottles in 2020). \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAfter a strict selection, the grapes are processed solely by gravity, to minimize damage to the grapes. Fermentation takes place with indigenous yeasts, followed by 24 months of aging in predominantly new French oak barrels. After that, the wine matures for another 10 months in large wooden foudres and a minimum of two years in the bottle before it is released to the market.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor the Taita harvest, only about 3 tons of grapes per hectare are harvested. This is less than half of what is customary for quality wines. The low yield ensures an enormous concentration of aromas, flavor, and structure. Moreover, the wine is only released after it has matured for years in barrel and in bottle.
