Description
Pipeno is the traditional method of winemaking in Chile, which dates back to the late 16th century. The Aupa Pipeno from Vina Maitia is an old school blend of 80% Pais (aka Mission/Listan Negro/Criolla Grande) and 20% Carignan from a 10 hectare, 120-year-old, dry farmed vineyard in the Maule Valley of Chile. This valley benefits from a Mediterranean-like climate where high temperatures in the summer are cooled by the breeze from the Humboldt Current in the Pacific Ocean.
