The Elqui Valley's distinctive climate produces this appealing dry Riesling with a lime colour, and a scented nose of crushed green apples and tropical fruit. The palate is dry and crisp, with mouthwatering acidity. While the valley is arid, with almost no rainfall, vines are grown here successfully, thanks to an abundant supply of Andean meltwater, flowing down the Elqui river. The icy Humboldt Current means that cold breezes from the Pacific make this a cool region, its constant sunshine notwithstanding.
