Viña Inéditas - Terroir Sonoro, is the culmination of 24 years of exploration by oenologist, winemaker and musician Juan José Ledesma. His aim, is to show the diversity and characteristics of the land that he tended in the Itata Valley. Music is not just a hobby for Juan, it plays an integral part in the winemaking process. Several years ago, he had an epiphany and decided to place water proof speakers in the barrels of each wine, thus creating what he calls sonic battonage. But at Terroir Sonoro, they go one step further. After an initial tasting of the press wine, and several improvisations and rehearsals, they then record a unique piece of music for several of the wines every harvest and this is then played inside the barrel. NB this is not done for every wine. Terroir Sonoro made a beguiling mixture of slightly off the beaten track wines, be that skin contact or wines under flor, to very classic wines designed to show the essence of purity of the grapes grown in the Biobio region and especially the Itata Valley where they are based and where most of their wines comes from. Itata is fast becoming the hottest ticket in Chile and Terroir Sonoro have fast gained recognition as one of the most interesting and dynamic wineries on the scene.
Terroir Sonoro Tartufo Malbec 2016
14% abv
Vol- 75cl
The wine is made from a very rare block of 140 year old ungrafted bush vines from the Bio Bio region. This is a really elgant and poised Malbec. Totally different from you big and bold Argentinian version but all the better for it. It has all the rich vbelvety fruit you have come to expect from a Malbec but with a freshness and lightness of touch which keeps tou heading back for another glass. The use of old oak barrels also helps avoid the overtly sweet and vanillary notes you sometimes get with Malbec. Very low production and sent to us on allocation, so grab some while its still around.
This is the silent twin of Juan’s Trtufo bottling in that this ages in silence withou tthe addiiton of music via a submerged speaker.
