Doña Luisa 2020 Millacoya País Rosado

by Strange Grapes View producer profile
On skins for three days, grapes were then hand pressed (Bastian and Michelle literally squeezed the juice from the grapes with their hands), they got 400lts out. Tart berries, stone-fruit pips and rose petals. A serious, almost campari note of dried herbs. Ract and tangy, with a surprising generosity. Cool-climate, organic zero-till, volcanic soils, 250+yr-old vines of País.

Strange Grapes Millacoya País Rosado

2020 Millacoya Rosado de Pais. 9.6 alc. No Adds. 24LUC

Grapes were hand picked from a tiny parcel, destemmed, and 200lts of juice was taken for the 'white' and the remainder stayed on skins for 3 days to make this rosé. Grapes were then hand pressed (Bastian and Michelle literally squeezed the juice from the grapes with their hands), they got 400lts out. Australia got 30 cases and the rest was home consumed.

Millacoya is the original Mapuche denomination for the region where the vineyard lies (now called Nacimiento). The Spanish then named the region Santa Cruz de Coya, a name lost after they were dispelled by the victorious Mapuche.

Milla is the Mapudungun word for Gold, Coya the Quechua word meaning Princess. The label depicts a Mapuche princess, a timely evocation of the spirit fuelling today's plight for justice and equality amongst Chile's original and multiple peoples.   

DOÑA LUISA: MILLAPOA, NACIMIENTO, BIO BIO. D.O.

Pato Cea and son Bastian (and his partner Michelle) are 7th and 8th generation growers.

Organic practices, no-till, unirrigated bush vines of País, 250 year old vines, original rootstock. Deep volcanic black sand on the banks of the river Bio Bio.

The unique mix of alluvial deposits and deep volcanic black sand produces a País of unique earthy aroma and crunchy red fruits, and the families unrelenting faithfulness to organic agriculture and traditional vinification makes these wines unmistakably theirs.
