Somm Note

Winemaker Notes

Red with violets hues. Raspberries and strawberries are revealed intensely in the nose with notes of toast, sweet vanilla and a touch of cinnamon. Pleasing and refreshing acidity with a good balance and structure. Long and lingering finish.

versatile wine. It goes well with chicken, pork, roast beef and vegetarian dishes. Great with mushroom risotto and smooth-creamy cheeses.

    This is fun and stylish with white pepper and dried strawberry character. Medium to full body, fine tannins and a fresh finish. Cool climate style. Drink now.

Aila by Santa Ema, South America
Over the years, Santa Ema has been recognized by the most important national and international organizations and has earned numerous medals in competitions such as the Concours Mundial de Bruxelles and distinctions in the prestigious international trade magazines. It was recently added to Wine Spectator's list of Top 20 World's Finest Value Brands, Wine Advocate rated four Santa Ema wines above 90 points, and Wine & Spirits named it Value Winery of the Year. But for Santa Ema, the most important distinction of all is the preference of its consumers around the world to appreciate the work of three generations dedicated to the production of consistently high quality wines.

In an effort to provide balance to the universe and honor the local Mapuche legacy, the Aila vineyard was planted nine miles from the coast and divided into nine blocks of nine rows each.

As a result, the wine found a perfect balance and harmony with the earth, and the Gods have rewarded the vineyard year after year.

Thin-skinned, finicky and temperamental, Pinot Noir is also one of the most rewarding grapes to grow and remains a labor of love for some of the greatest vignerons in Burgundy. Fairly adaptable but highly reflective of the environment in which it is grown, Pinot Noir prefers a cool climate and requires low yields to achieve high quality. Outside of France, outstanding examples come from in Oregon, California and throughout specific locations in wine-producing world. Somm Secret—André Tchelistcheff, California’s most influential post-Prohibition winemaker decidedly stayed away from the grape, claiming “God made Cabernet. The Devil made Pinot Noir.”

San Antonio Valley, Chile

An officially recognized sub-zone in the southern part of the San Antonio Valley, the Leyda Valley was the original settlement of the wine pioneers who came to the area in the 1990s. They were in search of cooler and wetter growing conditions—as compared to more eastern, drier and often warmer locations.

Planting, which began only in the late 1990s, focused on Sauvignon blanc, Chardonnay, Pinot noir and some limited spots for Syrah. The area continues to receive well-earned accolades for wines of these varieties.
