2023 Viña Casa Marín Cartagena Sauvignon Blanc

Viña Casa Marín was founded in 2000 by winemaker Maria Luz Marín, who had one thing in mind: making 'terroir wines' in Chile. Her project was innovative and daring, but she is now loved and praised and an example for many others in Chile! María Luz is the first female winemaker and winery in Chile. After graduating from the University of Chile with a degree in Agronomy and Winemaking, Maria Luz worked in several wineries, not least of which she worked for Romanee Contie. She has successfully positioned her fine delicate wines in top markets and among international critics, where they stand out for their high quality. Vina Casa Marin is currently one of the top wines from Chile and is an example of beautiful, elegant cool-climate wines.

This Cartagena from the San Antoine Valley is a cool-climate Sauvignon Blanc and therefore resembles the old world wines such as in the Loire. The grapes for this delicious Cartagena come from a 100% own vineyard on the higher plots, where the nights are less cold compared to the lower vineyards. The mineral soil consists of equal parts lime, clay and sand. The grapes are harvested with a perfect balance between ripeness and acidity. In the glass the wine is straw yellow with green reflections. The perfume drifts out of the glass with notes of white peach, apple, asparagus and cut grass. The taste is mouth-filling with a fine texture, plenty of juicy fruit, a nice complexity, something salty and an intense aftertaste! A delicious glass to enjoy on its own and highly recommended with oriental dishes, such as Thai (fish) curry with lemongrass or salad with prawns and sesame.
