Prisma Sauvignon Blanc Casablanca Valley, Chile 2023 (750ml)

Style: White Wine

Producer: Prisma

Grape: Sauvignon Blanc

Where: Casablanca Valley

Country: Chile

Taste: Passionate Fruit and Mango jump out of the glass with underlying citrus notes of lemon, lime, and grapefruit, combined with a mineral undertone lead to a crisp, elegant, and well-balanced finish. This hand-harvested, un-oaked, 100% Sauvignon Blanc is produced from a blend of two Casablanca Valley vineyards: BelEn and El Principal. The sandy, clay soils and cool, coastal climate contribute to a bright, fresh character in the wine.

100% hand harvested, estate wines that show the true expression of the Casablanca Valley. This collaborative project between Brazos and Grupo Belen began with the idea to showcase the unique terroir of the Casablanca Valley. The valley produces vibrant and fresh profiled wines due to the coastal, cool nature of the vineyards. The estate consists of multiple vineyards including some of the original plantings in Casablanca by Pablo Morande in 1982. The cool misty nights, hot sunny days, and light hand of the winemaker act as a prism to convert the grape into a complex and beautiful wine.

The Prisma wines are made by Ricardo Baettig with estate fruit from the Lo Ovalle subregion of the Casablanca Valley.  This coastal microclimate benefits from fog, large diurnal shifts in temperature, and its clay and granitic soil.  Both the vineyard and the winery are certified sustainable.  The Sauvignon Blanc comes from two different vineyards and is fermented and aged in stainless steel.  The Pinot Noir is from 3 different clones that come from multiple blocks with different orientations from a single hillside vineyard.  We believe that the Prisma bottlings offer great value and classic typicity.
