Buy Vina Ventolera Wines online from Great Wines Direct
Vicente Izquierdo, the company's founder, and Stefano Gandolini, one of Chile's best winemakers, have launched an interesting new endeavour called Vina Ventolera.
The 1999-planted vineyard is situated in the Leyda Valley area, only six km from the Pacific Ocean. The region is being singled out as Chile's newest and most innovative cool-climate wine region. It is significantly influenced by the Humboldt Current, which rises from the Antarctic and has a chilling effect.
This powerful sea breeze, known in Spanish as 'ventolera' has a chilling effect that helps create gorgeous, refined wines.
