Loma Larga is owned by the Díaz family, whose interest in wine was noted in the Paris wine exhibition of 1889. With the intention of keeping the family’s wine tradition alive, the family studied the climate and soil of their Casablancan estate, Loma Larga and, firmly believing in its potential, began planting vines in 1999. They are now recognised as one of the best producers of cool climate red wines in Chile.
It is really interesting to find a parcel of slightly more mature Syrah from the New World and this example from the Casablanca Valley is quite fascinating. The black cherry fruit is complemented by notes of wood smoke and bacon fat while the tannins are supple and refined. It is an elegant wine with a long finish.
