WINE DESCRIPTION

Cousiño-Macul Gota de Luna Sauvignon Blanc hails from the Malleco Valley, an emerging wine region in Chile located in the southern part of the country. Nestled within the Bio Bio administrative region, Malleco Valley offers a cooler climate compared to other wine regions in Chile, thanks to its proximity to the Pacific Ocean and the influence of the Andes Mountains. Cousiño-Macul, a distinguished Chilean winery renowned for its commitment to quality and tradition, produces Gota de Luna Sauvignon Blanc using grapes sourced from vineyards in the Malleco Valley. The winemaking process emphasizes the preservation of the varietal's unique characteristics and the expression of the region's terroir. The resulting wine is fresh and crispy, with good concentration of typical Sauvignon Blanc flavors.

NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

On the nose, this wine offers a bouquet of tropical fruits such as passion fruit, pineapple, and citrus notes of grapefruit and lime.These aromas are complemented by subtle herbal undertones, adding complexity to the overall profile. The palate of Cousiño-Macul Gota de Luna Sauvignon Blanc is equally impressive. It presents a zesty acidity that brings a refreshing sensation to the mouth. The tropical fruit flavors continue to shine, with a perfect balance between sweetness and acidity. The finish is clean and persistent, leaving a pleasant and lingering aftertaste.
