Vintage Report

The highest score for Chile in recent years is 96 points, indicating excellent quality. This points to wines with a very good structure that are accessible early.

The best of both worlds. Longavi was founded by two friends and winemakers. The vineyards for this wine are located in the Itata Valley in Chile, about 30 kilometers from the Pacific Ocean. Thanks to this location, the grapes enjoy a wonderful climate where warm temperatures alternate with cool sea breezes. This wine is a true expression of terroir with unparalleled elegance.

Significance of the Longavi wine project

Longavi wines are a collaboration between two friends from different continents: Chilean producer Julio Bouchon and South African winemaker David Nieuwoudt, owner of the renowned Cederberg winery. The project name, Longavi, means "snake's head." This name derives from a stratovolcano called Nevado de Longavi, and the vine wreath on the label represents the Ourobos, an ancient African symbol representing nature's eternal cycle of renewal. Early in the morning, the ripe Muscat grapes are harvested entirely by hand. They are then transported almost immediately to the winery where careful vinification takes place. First, fermentation takes place for six months. This takes place with the skins in cement tanks, after which the skins are filtered out, and the wine is transferred to old French barrels where it rests for another four months.

What does the Longavi Glup Naranjo taste like?

The result is a beautiful wine with a yellow color and golden glow. An attractive glass of white wine with intense aromas of white flowers, herbs, and abundant ripe fruit. These appealing aromas immediately seduce you from the first sip. A fresh and zesty palate follows with notes of citrus and a hint of mint. This wine has a beautiful character and equally lovely tannins. Plenty of structure and complexity complete this wine.
