The name Santa Digna was given to the crosses marking the district boundaries of a l&. These crosses served to delimit territories & symbolised good fortune & protection for those who were leaving for other climes. This wine is the product of Chardonnay vineyards in the Rio Claro area (Curico), which enjoys a cooler climate than the Central Valley. It displays a brilliant pale yellow colour, with green hues. Its aroma offers a predominance of chardonnay varietal notes (mango, apricot), enhanced by vanilla & coconut nuances. An excellent balance between density & acidity on the palate is followed by a very fruity aftertaste. Serve at 10deg C. An ideal partner for backed fish dishes, as well as turkey or chicken in creamy sauces. ...

Nearly 500 years ago, the first grapevine in Chilean history arrived, brought by brave men who struggled across rivers & mountains. This was a special vine: in Spain known as Listan Negro, in the colonies of the new world it was called Mision, & in Chile it would be known as ' Pais'. This varietal is cultivated in dry zones with humility, hard work, & dedication generally by small winegrowers who have passed their land from fathers to sons over several generations. In 1850 the first French vines were introduced to Chile, leaving the ' Pais' grape aside & later forgotten in time, with an uncertain future. The rescue of Chile's oldest grape varietal has produced Santa Digna Estelado, a unique sparkling wine, 100% Chilean, a reward for the land & its people. Pale rose colour, with fine & persistent bubbles. In the aroma, notes of fruit (red fruits & citrics) predominate. On the 0palate, fresh, lively, & genuine, characteristic of the ancestral varietal Pais. Santa Digna Estelado is made using the traditional method with the second fermentation in the bottle. The first sparkling rose made with the ' Pais' grape has a personality of its own. ...

The name Santa Digna was given to the crosses marking the district boundaries of a l&. These crosses served to delimit territories & symbolised good fortune & protection for those who were leaving for other climes. Since reaching Chile in 1979, we have conducted some interesting viticultural experiments with different grape varieties. One of these, Syrah, did not appear to really thrive in Curico so after a few years we tried planting it in Linares, 140 km further south. There, growing in poor, well-drained soils, Syrah provides low-yield but excellent harvests. After a long quest, we produced our first shiraz wine, with a small percentage of cabernet Sauvignon. This is an opulent wine, robust with a fine body & silky, rounded tannins. Highlights are its deep violet colour & notes of forest fruits: blackberry, violet & hints of blackcurrant. The palate is elegant with character. Ageing in French oak contributes a pleasing toasty background. The perfect accompaniment for pasta & seasoned sauces, roasted & grilled meats, & exotic dishes. ...

The name Santa Digna was given to the crosses marking the district boundaries of a l&. These crosses served to delimit territories & symbolised good fortune & protection for those who were leaving for other climes. Since arriving in Chile in 1979, the Torres Family have been enthralled by its majestic landscapes & vineyards. Nowhere else in the world are vines grown in such a magical setting: between the cold Pacific Ocean, the mysterious southern forests, the burning desert & the eternal snows of the Andes Mountain glaciers. Stone crosses called Santa Digna separated these landscapes from arable l&, symbolizing fortune & prosperity. Made exclusively from Caberne Sauvignon, whose fruit is small, thickskinned & with a slightly musky flavour. It yields well-structured wines with an exotic & delicate elegance. A fresh, pale gold colour, with a blend of aromas reminiscent of ripe, tropical fruits, over underlying hints of apple & fennel. Silky on the palate with a good acid structure & prolonged finish. Can be taken as an aperitif, or with fish, baked, broiled or served in mild sauces. Best served at 10deg C. ...
