This natural wine has a delicate straw yellow color and appears slightly cloudy. On the nose it has aromas of peach and tropical fruits such as chirimoya, that harmonize with a buttery characteristic due to its malolactic fermentation. In the mouth, the tropical and floral flavors linger and its good acidity highlights this wine's freshness.
All wild fermented, no additives included, no sulfites added, bottled unfiltered and unfined.
Active in Chilean agriculture, grape growing and winemaking since 1740, the Echeverria family established their current vineyards and winery in 1923 in the outskirts of Molina, a town in the Curicó Valley. Here, they grow grapes from French pre-philloxera rootstocks, on their 80 ha of vineyards. Originally established to produce bulk wines, in 1990, the winery was converted to produce quality wines for export. In the following years, Echeverria was one of the few boutique wineries to emerge from Chile. The winery’s No Es Pituko line is home to their ‘nothing added’ wines.
