A delicate pale gold. On the nose, aromas of lemon, fresh pineapple with hints of lavender. It is a bright well balanced wine with a clean minerality on the finish.
The very first La Playa wine, named for Chile’s magnificent Pacific coastline and the vibrant rivers that nourish the Vina La Playa vineyards, was introduced in 1987 by the Axelsen family of California. The Axelsens also own CabCorp Wine Merchants in Marin, California, established in 1980 and the exclusive importer and distributor of La Playa wines in the United States and Canada. Vina La Playa S.A. of Chile is a partnership between the Axelsens and two prominent Chilean winemaking legends: the Sutil and Errazuriz families. The winery encompasses 600 acres of prime property in the Colchagua Valley, plus 200 acres in Limari Valley and additional vineyards in such highly desirable areas such as Curico Valley, Bio-Bio and Maule Valley.
Viña La Playa is home to some of Chile’s best vineyards, producing distinctive Chilean varietals such as Carmenére, as well as unique proprietor blends like our signature Axel Primero red wine.
