Indomita Polera Gran Reserva Pais

Indomita Polera Gran Reserva Pais is a lighter style of red. Soft and approachable with cherry aromas, a hint of cassis and a fresh finish. The Itata Valley lies in the south of Chile’s winemaking region, with a cooler climate. Pais are the original grapes of Chile. 

Viña Indómita occupies a truly spectacular location, between Santiago and Valparaíso in the heart of Casablanca, with an imposing house and hillside sign that wouldn’t look out of place in Hollywood.

Yet this belies a dynamic winemaking team and one of the most exciting winemaking projects in Chile. With vineyards the length of Chile, from Casablanca to Maipo as well as Maule and Itata, they take full advantage of the region’s climatic differences, with a focus on Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir in the cooler Casablanca Valley, Carignan from the Maule Valley, Pais in the Itata Valley and Cabernet Sauvignon and Carménère are the main varieties cultivated in the warmer Maipo region. Environmental sustainability and social responsibility are taken seriously, with measures to minimise wastewater and energy consumption, alongside ventures to create local employment across both winemaking and wine tourism.

Indomita Polera Gran Reserva Pais represents the expression of tradition and the terroir of the Itata Valley, approximately 500 km South from the city of Santiago. The origin of viticulture for Pais begins in this valley in southern Chile, with the uva grape plantations. The character of the wine evolves from its coastal proximity and high rainfall, these vineyards grow for decades without irrigation and without a trellising system. The rural minimal intervention viticultural traditions of southern Chile shine on in these low yielding vineyards.
