Wild flowers growing between the vine rows
Alvaro Espinoza
The winery is made from 'adobe' bricks made from mud and straw

DescriptionVery good, inexpensive blackcurrant-fruited Cabernet Sauvignon. The fruit is maturing nicely and developing a toastiness from the 6 months in oak, and the tannins have mellowed. Lovely to drink now with soft bread and cheese. More informationAdobe is a range of wines produced by Viñedos Orgánicos Emiliana, one of the sole producers in Chile to use biodynamic practices.
In fact it was Alvaro Espinoza who was the first to introduce biodynamics to South America and he is viewed as something of a pioneer.
He aims to increase biodiversity in the vineyard by planting cover crops, leaving corridors between vine blocks for plants and wild flowers to grow. This also has the effect of attracting the pests away from the vines. The gravity-fed winery is made from natural materials, including 'adobe' a traditional brick made from mud and straw.
Certified organic and certified biodynamic by Demeter.
