{"title":"Cacique Maravilla","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn the village of Yumbel in southern Chile's Bío-Bío Valley, Manuel Moraga Gutiérrez tends vines that predate most of the New World wine map. He is the seventh-generation steward of Cacique Maravilla, a name his ancestor earned long before it ever appeared on a label.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eManuel's forebear Francisco Gutiérrez Gutiérrez arrived in Chile from the Canary Islands in 1750 and acquired land in Yumbel. He earned such respect from the local Mapuche that they called him 'Cacique Maravilla,' roughly 'Magnificent Chief.' The family's vineyard heritage reaches back to the 1760s and is registered as one of the oldest in all of Chile.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMore on how they farm and work in the cellar in our \u003ca href=\"\/blogs\/natural-wine-producers-primal-wine\/cacique-maravilla\"\u003eCacique Maravilla producer profile\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"pipeno-cacique-maravilla-pais-chile-natural-wine","title":"Cacique Maravilla Pipeño 2021","description":"\u003cp\u003ePipeño is a centuries-old Chilean wine style — the word refers to wine drawn directly from the pipa (barrel) and drunk by farmers in the fields. Cacique Maravilla's version is 100% País, the Listán Prieto grape brought to Chile from the Canary Islands during the Spanish conquest and now considered Chile's most historically significant variety. The vines at Yumbel were first planted around 1766 on trumao soil — volcanic sand formed by redeposited ash over a lava river — and some are over 250 years old, making them pre-phylloxera survivors.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the cellar, grapes are hand-harvested and destemmed using a zaranda, a traditional bamboo screen. Fermentation is spontaneous in open-top lagars of raulí, a native Chilean pink oak. No pressing: only free-run juice is used. The wine is moved by gravity into raulí pipas for aging on fine lees, then bottled unfiltered and unfined with no added sulfur.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe result is light-bodied and high-acid with fresh red fruit, a flinty smokiness from the volcanic soil, and a slight earthy, herbal edge.
