Somm Note

Winemaker Notes

Bright greenish yellow. This wine is highly complex, with an expressive and elegant character, minerality and freshness. With herbaceous notes, white flowers, passion fruit, limes, and grapefruit. Its body is medium to full-bodied with notes of sea and salt and hints of chalk. It has a deep and persistent finish. Lively and juicy acidity. Well balanced.

Professional Ratings

92 Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
I found a very subtle and elegant 2020 Terrunyo Sauvignon Blanc, a young and pale varietal from the Casablanca Valley, a white of moderate alcohol and notable acidity that is subtle, a little shy and in need to grow in bottle. It's varietal but more on the floral and citrus side than the herbal profile.

Terrunyo Los boldos vineyard Winery Image

Inspired by a drive to highlight Chile’s most celebrated terroirs in a collection of varietal wines whose quality and finesse echo that of the world’s finest wines, Terrunyo wines are crafted with a philosophy of terroir in mind. Named for terruño, the Spanish word for terroir, each Terrunyo wine begins with hand-harvested fruit. A micro-climate, the chosen grape stock, a select piece of soil and an expert hand interact, creating perfect harmony and delivering unrivaled quality.

Capable of a vast array of styles, Sauvignon Blanc is a crisp, refreshing variety that equally reflects both terroir and varietal character. Though it can vary depending on where it is grown, a couple of commonalities always exist—namely, zesty acidity and intense aromatics. This variety is of French provenance. Somm Secret—Along with Cabernet Franc, Sauvignon Blanc is a proud parent of Cabernet Sauvignon. That green bell pepper aroma that all three varieties share is no coincidence—it comes from a high concentration of pyrazines (herbaceous aromatic compounds) inherent to each member of the family.

Casablanca Valley Wine

Chile

View all products

A region that has become synonymous with some of the best whites of Chile, the Casablanca Valley is full of dozens of bodegas who either grow fruit here or come from outside to source from local growers for their own white wine programs. The valley runs from east to west, which means that its westernmost vineyards receive the most cooling influence from the reliable afternoon sea breezes. The soils also tend to be heavier in clay in the west, whereas the eastern end of the valley is warmer and its soils are predominantly granitic. Sauvignon blanc thrives here, Chardonnay does well and Pinot noir is not uncommon.
