The grapes for the Besoain Single Vineyard Carm\u00e9n\u00e8re come from the Las Pataguas vineyard in the Cachapoal Valley. The soils on hilly terrain near the Tinguiririca river are of volcanic origin, with alluvial deposits and large quantities of clay.
\nThe harvest is 100% manual. After the harvest, the grapes are selected by hand, both in the vineyard and in the cellar. Before fermentation, the grapes were cold macerated for 5 days to extract color and tannin. Alcoholic fermentation took place in small stainless steel tanks. Malolactic fermentation then took place in French barriques. The wine then matured for 12 months in used barrique barrels (second passage). The aim was to preserve the seductive fruit and not overwhelm the wine with too much wood. The Single Vineyard Carm\u00e9n\u00e8re was finally bottled in February 2023.
\nIn Chile, the Carm\u00e9n\u00e8re grape variety, which originates from Bordeaux in France, was confused with Merlot until the 1990s. This very late-ripening variety has almost disappeared in France. In Chile, however, it experienced a meteoric rise.<\/p>\n
