Koyle Alto Colchagua Reserva Carmenère 2024
Red Wine from Chile - Rapel
Made from an organic vineyard planted at about 500-metres altitude, this Chilean carmenère has ripe fruit but also a refreshing palate with hints of black pepper and cloves, and is more drinkable than the fruit-bomb style from warmer spots. Cristóbal, who lives in a house built on the property and has a real feeling for vineyards and viticulture and is making Koyle a benchmark in biodynamic and regenerative agriculture. Their soils are healthier, more aerated and better drained. Organic matter in the soil has increased by 400% in 20 years, with manure coming from 100 sheep, 12 cows, eight horses and 100+ chickens and geese. Their communal allotment on site is a beneficiary and produces what the family know are the best tomatoes in the region! The produce goes to feed the staff and workers. the treat 100% of the water they use and what is needed for irrigation comes from a meltwater rainwater reservoir and the local river. all waste is recycled and biodiversity encouraged, with 200 beehives in place and agroforestry is practised, integrating trees into the vineyards. Of the 1,000 hectares that the Undurraga family own, much is not vineyard and looks likely to be declared a park or preserve.
