Emiliana Signos de Origen La Vinilla is a white of real ambition and precision from Chile's cool, coastal Casablanca Valley. A blend of Chardonnay and Roussanne, hand-harvested from meticulously farmed organic and biodynamic blocks, fermented with native yeasts across French barrels, concrete ovoids, foudres, and stainless steel, and aged on lees for nine months — this is a wine of remarkable weight, texture, and seamless complexity. Power and elegance in equal measure.

Why You'll Love It

Emiliana has been one of Chile's most exciting producers since 1998, pioneering organic and biodynamic viticulture at a time when few others were paying attention. The Signos de Origen range represents the pinnacle of that work — single-vineyard wines with genuine personality, precision, and a true sense of place. The Casablanca Valley's maritime breezes moderate summer temperatures, allowing grapes to ripen slowly and develop exceptional aromatic intensity. If you love serious white Burgundy, this is the Chilean answer worth discovering.

Vineyard & Production

Grapes are hand-harvested from high-quality blocks in Casablanca and carefully selected on a sorting table before whole-bunch pressing in a pneumatic press. The must is kept cold on its lees for six days before spontaneous fermentation with native yeasts. After fermentation, the wine rests on lees for nine months: 60% in French barrels, 16% in 2,000-litre French foudres, 15% in concrete ovoids, and 9% in stainless steel, before final blending and bottling.

Tasting Notes

Aromas of cold salted butter and subtle white pepper on the nose. The palate is generous and textured — almond skin, vanilla, crème fraîche, and salted butter — with a seam of saline minerality running through the long, refined finish.

Perfect Pairings

Excellent with fine hard cheeses, perfectly roasted chicken, classic poulette, pan-fried scallops, or lobster with butter sauce. A wine that rewards a special occasion without demanding one.
