San Antonio, just 9 miles from the Pacific Ocean, ensuring cool temperatures, is Sauvignon Blanc country. A bright greenish yellow, the wines presents a nose dominated by asparagus and pink grapefruit along with grass and the customary intensity of the grape. Fatty on the palate, this is a taut white with a well-judged malic, linear freshness; a pure, precise expression. Slightly saline in the mouth, the finish is citric and expressive. Vinous March 2020

Tech Details

The sea breeze sweeps away excess humidity and regulates temperatures, resulting in harvests two weeks later than in the other maritime-influenced valleys in the area. The harvest is completely by hand, as is the selection of bunches and grapes. Boya Sauvignon Blanc comes from blocks that are mainly granitic soils with some clay. The wine goes through a short cold soak but no malolactic fermentation, and is then aged in stainless steel before being bottled. All Boya wines are certified sustainable through Vinos de Chile
