Description

De Martino Cuvée Viñedo Santa Inés Maipo Valley 2020, De Martino's finest and top wine, a true collector's item produced in limited quantities only in optimal vintages.

This medium-bodied red is unfined, unfiltered, and crafted from hand-picked grapes from the family's emblematic Santa Inés Vineyard. It boasts fresh acidity and very elegant tannins that perfectly harmonize with its intense fruit concentration.

The nose is highly complex, revealing layers of cassis and red fruit, beautifully intermingled with mineral aromas of graphite and wet stone, leading to delicate notes of violets and tobacco. The epically long finish solidifies its status as a top-tier wine.

While certainly enjoyable now, this wine also has excellent cellaring potential.

Serving recommendations

Serve at 16-18 °C with meat dishes with richer sauces, wild mushroom stews, hard cheeses.

About brand

De Martino Winery is a family-owned estate founded in 1934 by Pietro De Martino, an Italian immigrant who established ideal conditions for wine production in the Maipo Valley. The winery consistently invests in organic viticulture and sustainable farming, aiming to reveal the diversity of Chile's regions and the authentic expression of terroir. Their winemakers constantly travel through different Chilean locations, seeking unique plots for the production of individual, exceptional wines, striving to prove that Chile can produce top-quality wines. De Martino was the first to export Carmenere wine to foreign countries in 1996, and currently, their single-vineyard wines consistently receive high ratings from wine critics, enthusiasts, and professionals alike.

Wine Style

De Martino wines are characterized by fresh acidity, fruitiness, and earthy notes, along with a distinctive minerality – qualities that are somewhat less common in New World wines.

  • Carmenere: Intense, with subtle notes of spices, smoke, and earth, which harmoniously blend with soft tannins.
  • Chardonnay and Syrah: Elegant variations where the influence of traditional oak barrels adds extra complexity to the wines.

Prestigious Vineyards

The grapes used for De Martino wines are grown in unique Chilean regions:

  • Isla de Maipo: A region with a Mediterranean climate and distinctive soil that imparts a special character to the wines.
  • Itata: Traditional vineyards where classic methods are employed to reveal the authenticity of the terroir.

Aging and Consumption Period

The wines are aged using both modern and traditional technologies, allowing them to maintain their authenticity and emphasize the local terroir. While most De Martino wines are enjoyable upon release, some variations have the potential for long aging, developing even more complex notes.
