Chile first wowed us with its silky, pure fruit Bordeaux style reds, then showed us it could do just the same with crisp whites too. The wines seem to straddle perfectly the middle line between the elegant restraint of the Old World and the bright fruit exuberance of the New! Los Tortolitos (lovebirds) is a new release made with passion! It's from Chile's sunkissed Central Valley vineyards, a perfect marriage of different parcels, harvested at intervals to obtain the perfect balance of juicy, ripe fruit and freshness. Fermentation at a low temperature in the modern cellar further enhances the bright character of this white. Chill the wine down and serve as a refreshing glass on its own, or with pea risotto, asparagus or noodles.
