Louis-Antoine Luyt 2016 Santa Juana Tinto 1.0L

This wine has been described as funky, fruity, and barnyard - like a rich Gamay that can be enjoyed at room temperature or chilled out of the fridge. Slightly opaque, this wine is unfiltered and all-natural (made with indigenous grapes and yeasts). Wild with plush tannins, yet mouth-watering and refreshing. If this sounds like your type of party, you'll have no trouble finishing the whole litre. About: The Pipeno wines are elaborated in the Chilean most traditional way. That is to say the harvests are trampled and removed from their clusters manually over a “zaranda” and then vinificated in a lagar (opened tank). The juice is then kept in “pipas”, hence the name of Pipeño.The wine is only made from the juice of this maceration. Besides the Pipeños produced by himself, Louis-Antoine developed activities with local growers as producers of pipeños. --Winemaker
