2024 Ventisquero Explorador Sauvignon Blanc

"Ventisquero Explorador - the adventure begins- pays homage to the Exploradores 
glacier (or "Ventisquero" in spanish) in Southern Chile and all the adventurers who begin 
the tour of our wines."

Tasting Notes

Bright, zesty and wonderfully refreshing. This Chilean Sauvignon Blanc bursts with lime, grapefruit and crisp green apple, lifted by subtle herbal notes and a clean mineral edge. The palate is light, vibrant and mouth‑watering, with a streak of citrus acidity that keeps everything lively and super drinkable. Finishes fresh, pure and perfect for summer sipping.

Vinification

The must was protected from contact with the air throughout the process which began 
with a cold maceration for 6 to 12 hours to increase the aromatic potential. Next came a 
slow fermentation at a constant temperature of between 13°C and 15°C, which enabled 
the fruit aromas typical of the variety to be drawn out.

Producer

Ventisquero has the only wines in the world from the Atacama desert, making wines 
further north than any other winery in Chile. Ventisquero makes wines in all other 
cardinal points, the west, east and south making them a winery of diversity and 
distinction. They are family owned, with 100% estate vineyards and one of the founding 
wineries to push the sustainability movement in Chile. With award winning Chief 
winemaker Felipe Tosso at the helm and world recognised winemaker John Duval, they 
continue to take Ventisquero ‘a step beyond’.
