Chile - Amayna

AMAYNA is a small range of four premium Chilean wines produced from a unique terroir in the San Antonio-Leyda Valley, on the Pacific Coast. The Garcés Silva family initially planted the 70 hectare vineyard to sell the grapes to a third party. As that third party became keener on an annual basis to secure the entire harvest, the family began to suspect that they had discovered a real treasure.

Initial vinification confirmed their suspicions and the Amayna brand was born with the 2003 vintage.

The Family: The Garcés Silva Family is a traditional family in the agricultural trade for more than three generations, led by its founder Mr. José Antonio Garcés. This project is a meeting point for the whole family whose objective is to share with the consumer the quality of the premium wines. They are the outcome of the terroir, of a prestigious oenologist team and top generation technology.

The Team: Many factors influence the quality of a wine. One of the most important is the high degree of dedication shown by the vineyard work teams. Many generations of their team were born in this land; they know better than anyone its secrets which go into the magic of Amayna.

Intense as the sea, the mineral nature and complex aromas of this chardonnay recalls toasted almonds, dried fruit, and papaya blended with fine oak. Well-structured and elegant on the palate, with a deliciously long finish.

Nose: Fresh nose, mineral. The citric scents mix with the vanilla notes coming from the French oak giving elegance and complexity.
