Vina Falernia Elki Sangiovese

This Chilean Sangiovese from Vina Falernia uses hand picked grapes from the Elqui Valley region, where vineyards sit 2000m above sea level. This high altitude balances the region's closeness to the equator, bringing excellent sun and cool nights. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel with further skim contact following before 50% is matured in stainless steel, and 50% in French and American oak barrels for 3 months. 

This creates a vibrant, juicy Sangiovese wine bursting with rich black cherry and red berry aromas. These fall on to the full-flavoured palate, filling the mouth alongside smooth tannins before a breath of vanilla on the long finish. try with tomato pasta dishes.

Vina Falernia was established in 1998 when its founder realised the potential for producing superb wines in the semi-arid Elqui Valley. Beginning as an innovative venture, it is Chile's most northern winery estate and worked with passion to transform a tract of desert into green vineyards. Vina Falernia has now succeeded in transforming itself into a premium wine producer with international recognition.
