Hussonet
Climate
The 2021 growing season in the Maipo Valley can best be described as cool with repeated rain showers during veraison. These climatic conditions slowed down the grapes’ ripening phase and caused a delay in harvesting activities. The 2021 grape harvest delivered well-balanced expressive fruit with generous fruity aromas and flavors.
Vinification
The different vineyard parcels of Cabernet Sauvignon were fermented separately both in stainless steel vats and French oak. Cold maceration was performed over a 3-to-5-day period to enhance aromatic compounds. Once alcoholic fermentation was complete, the wine was transferred to barriques where it aged for 12 months.
