The 2020 Viejas Tinajas Cinsault was produced with grapes from 35-year-old, ungrafted and dry-farmed vines in Guarilihue in Coelemu. It's from a warmer year and has higher ripeness than in past years, 13% alcohol and mellow acidity. Like in the past, the destemmed but uncrushed grapes underwent a natural carbonic maceration in amphorae without any added products (yeasts or sulfur). The wine spent the winter in those amphorae, and after malolactic, in the spring, it was bottled unfiltered with a little sulfur. The nose mixes wild berries and herbs and is very expressive, and the palate is medium-bodied and balanced with fine-grained tannins and a tasty finish.
