Unit price per
85% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Syrah
The Galactica wines are made by the winemaking team of Ricardo Baettig and Daniela Salinas with fruit from a blend of both estate and sourced vineyards. The wines come from cool microclimates within Chile which benefit from having large diurnal shifts in temperature and silty, granitic soil.
The winemaking process involves cool fermentation in stainless steel tanks, followed by aging for six months in a combination of neutral 225-liter French oak barrels and stainless steel tanks.
Aromas of dark cherry, ripe plum, and rhubarb, with notes of cigar box, clove, and eucalyptus. On the palate, you can expect flavors of blackberry, dark chocolate, and juicy currants, with subtle hints of leather and baking spices. Fine-grained tannins and a persistent finish.
