Son vs. Dad Wine Tasting Wars - Merlot - La Ronciere

Breaking with the established rules to find one's own identity meant a 4-year search through different valleys and areas of Chile, until finally, and after a long journey, La Ronciere found what they were looking for... The coast of the Curicó Valley, in the Licantén commune, revealed as a dream place for viticulture. Close to the banks of the Mataquito River and about 25 kilometers from the sea, between pronounced hills of the ancient coastal mountain range, a mosaic of different types of metamorphic soils unfolds, such as Licorellas, Shales, Maicillo and some clay loam sectors. The conjunction of such varied elements make this place a true "Microclimate", which meant that it was recognized as a new geographical denomination for winegrowing in Chile, being until now the only vineyard established in this place.
