Vina Ventolera

2018 Ventolera Pinot Noir, Vina Ventolera

Leyda Valley, ChileVintage: 2018

Or as we call it – “The Ocean Whisper”

Pale ruby with a translucent edge, this cool-climate Pinot from Chile’s Leyda Valley glides between delicacy and depth. Aromas of wild strawberry, cranberry and rose petal rise gently from the glass, joined by hints of sea breeze, spice and damp earth. The palate is vibrant and silky with red fruit woven with fine tannins, lively acidity and a subtle savoury edge. Graceful, pure, and beautifully composed, it lingers with a whisper of minerality and spice on the finish.

For when: the air’s cool, the food’s light, and the playlist’s vinyl.
Pairs with: duck breast, roasted beetroot, or mushroom risotto.
If this wine were a place, it’d be a quiet coastal morning – bright, still, and full of promise.

Viña Ventolera is the passion project of Stefano Gandolini, one of Chile’s leading terroir-driven winemakers. Located in the coastal hills of the Leyda Valley, just 8 km from the Pacific Ocean, Ventolera (meaning strong wind) benefits from cool maritime breezes that slow ripening and preserve natural acidity. The 2018 vintage, aged partly in French oak, shows the purity and precision that define Gandolini’s style – elegant fruit, saline lift, and remarkable poise.

Description

Ventolera is an exciting venture between founder Vicente Izquierdo and one of Chile’s top winemakers Stefano Gandolini. The vineyard, which was planted in 1999, is located in the region of the Leyda Valley, just six kilometres from the Pacific Ocean. The area is being singled out as being Chile’s newest and most radical cool-climate wine region, which is strongly influenced by the cooling effects of the Humboldt Current that flows up from the Antarctic. ‘Ventolera’ is a Spanish word which refers to this strong sea wind; its cooling influence is instrumental in producing wonderfully elegant wines.
