Made with ancestral winemaking techniques, De Martino Viejas Tinajas Blanco is a truly unique natural wine. This wine was fermented and aged in centennial
tinajas (amphorae), a tradition that originated in the first vineyards of the Itata Valley planted in 1551. Highly aromatic and complex with lovely floral notes, grape and honey aromas and a touch of wet stone minerality. Round in the mouth with bold fruit balanced by fresh acidity and wonderful texture thanks to skin contact. Wonderfully long finish. A bottle worth cellaring if you can wait –
