Producer Description
In the early 1990’s, Bordeaux luminaries Bruno Prats (Chateau Cos d’Estournel) and Paul Pontallier (Chateau Margaux) discovered the high caliber of Cabernet Sauvignon from Chile’s Alto Maipo region. They partnered with their colleague Felipe de Solminihac, a renowned Chilean agronomist, oenologist and winemaker in the region. They acquired 45 acres in the ‘Quebrada de Macul’, historically the heart of the Maipo Valley vineyards, and Vif1a Aquitania was born. In January 2003, Ghislain de Montgolfier (CEO of Bollinger Champagne), became the fourth partner.
To enjoy this Sol de Sol Chardonnay, simply open the bottle carefully. Pour it into a wine glass, filling it about a third full to allow the wine to aerate a bit. Sip it slowly, taking in the fruity and mineral flavors. Note that it’s best served at a moderate temperature, around 10 – 12 degrees Celsius. As for storage, keep it in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight. Avoid shaking the bottle too vigorously. This wine pairs well with a variety of foods like grilled chicken, seafood pasta, or a soft cheese platter.
