History Spumante del Limarí was born in the heart of the valley that bears its name, a privileged land where desert and mountains converge under a distinctive climate of cool nights and luminous days. From the outset, the winery embraced a philosophy of working in harmony with nature, practising rigorous organic viticulture that respects biodiversity and avoids chemical interventions which might compromise the purity of the soil and the vine.
The project is founded on the conviction that only through discipline, patience, and absolute respect for the environment is it possible to craft sparkling wines that faithfully convey their origin. Every stage — from the selection of the vineyards to the second fermentation in bottle — is undertaken with precision and in line with standards comparable to those of the world’s leading sparkling wine houses.
Spumante del Limarí embodies a synthesis of heritage and modernity: the heritage of producing wines by the traditional method, and the modernity of a sustainable, transparent, and conscientious approach. Its philosophy is summed up in a clear commitment: to create sparkling wines of the highest quality, where freshness, finesse, and the identity of the valley always take centre stage.
Vineyards Located in the middle basin of the Limarí River, within the coastal zone, the vineyards thrive on alluvial soils of fine red clays, interspersed with calcareous bands. The climate — shaped by morning mists, intense light, and cool nights — favours a slow ripening that results in fresh wines with citrus aromas and delicate saline notes.
Cultivated varieties: Pinot Noir and Chardonnay.
