Fruit-friendly, youthful and dynamic, Callia wines inspires consumers to find some "me" time; to take a break and reward themselves for all their daily efforts that propel them forward. Callia’s philosophy is based on the notion that reconnecting with oneself and others while enjoying the simple pleasures in life, helps us to restore balance and find happiness.
TERROIR & VINTAGE NOTESBodegas Callia is situated in the Tulum Valley in Argentina’s province of San Juan. It is nestled between the Pie de Palo hills to the north and the Cerro Chico Del Zonsa to the south. Two finca estates encompass 700 acres of land: Finca Pie de Palo and Finca 9 De Julio. At 630 meters above sea level, the area is blessed by temperate climate, low rainfall and rich sandy alluvial and clay loam soil; the result is intense and fruity wines that reflect the rich terroir of this region.
WINEMAKINGThe grapes are hand-harvested and immediately crushed and destemmed to preserve freshness and fruit character. The grapes undergo a cold maceration for 48 hours at a temperature of 53.6°F.
TASTING NOTESOn the nose, exotic aromas of blackberry, violet, juicy plum, ripe figs, and sour cherries. In terms of the palate, a balanced mouthfeel with flavors of raspberry, ripe cherry, and chocolate. This enticing red blend has a touch of sweetness. Great on its own or with appetizers. Serve chilled.
