WINE DESCRIPTION
Erasmo Unfiltered Red is a unique and characterful red wine produced by the Erasmo winery, located in the Maule Valley of Chile. This wine is notable for being unfiltered, a winemaking choice that allows the wine to retain more of its natural flavors, textures, and complexity. The Maule Valley is one of Chile's most traditional and oldest wine-producing regions, known for its diverse microclimates and soil types, which are ideal for growing a variety of grape varieties. The unfiltered nature of this wine means it may have a richer body and more pronounced flavor profile than its filtered counterparts, reflecting a more natural and artisanal approach to winemaking.
