About this WINE
Vina Koyle
Viña Koyle was founded in 2006 by Alfonso Undurraga Mackenna, former CEO of Viñas Undurraga, and his three sons and daughter at Los Lingues in the high Colchagua valley. This 60 hectare wine property has espoused organic and biodynamic principles from its inception.
Benefiting from five differing soils of volcanic origin, the property has taken great care to optimise the grape variety to soil type and vineyard microclimate. The wines are all fermented without excessive extraction to allow the fruit to be expressive and the oak regime is designed to complement rather than overwhelm the nose and palate.
Other Varieties
There are over 200 different grape varieties used in modern wine making (from a total of over 1000). Most lesser known blends and varieties are traditional to specific parts of the world.

Description
Viña Koyle was founded in 2006, high in the Colchagua valley. This 1,100 hectare wine property has espoused organic and biodynamic principles from its inception. Benefiting from five differing soils of volcanic origin, the property has taken great care to optimise the grape variety to soil type and vineyard microclimate.
An extraordinarily mouth-filling wine from the Alto Clochagua region, each of the five varieties was taken from selected, low-yielding parcels and vinified, then aged for 24 months in French oak separately. Only then were they blended and aged for a further nine months in an egg-shaped tank. This has huge concentration and ripeness, with layers of complexity from the five varieties and the oak. The finish is remarkably ripe and long. Delicious now, but eminently age-worthy.
