More about this wine from Lolol Valley, Chile
The team behind Araucano are super picky (in a good way). These grapes are handpicked and then double sorted to weed out the weakest links. Grown right next to the Pacific Ocean, these grapes are blanketed in morning mists and cool evenings; but don't judge them for loving chilly weather. Not only is the cooler climate good for cuddling, it also makes for more tart, mouthwatering wines as the coolness increases the acidity.

Even though Sauvignon Blanc is especially keen in the summer months, this bottle is surprisingly versatile. Some New World Sauvignon Blancs will slam you over the head with crisp, green bell pepper - but not this Chilean variety. American and South American versions can be smoother, with noticeably tropical flavors. This Araucano is an example of the latter.
