Sol de Andes, Merlot, 2023

Sol De Andes was founded in 1993 in the Maule Valley. Their philosophy is to produce elegant and enjoyable wines that highlight the distinct characteristics of each grape variety by combining cutting-edge technology with traditional winemaking skills. Sol De Andes (“Sun of the Andes”) takes its name from the sun that illuminates the vineyards. The region’s poor soils, excellent exposure to sunshine and the absence of rain at harvest time are unique and invaluable conditions for the production of quality wines. The 450 hectares of Sol De Andes vineyards are located in the foothills of the Andes in the Maule, Casablanca and Colchagua Valleys where the influence of the Pacific moderates the climate and where the diurnal temperature fluctuation preserves the balance and freshness of the wines.
