Roberto Henriquez Molino del Ciego 2023 Review
Roberto Henriquez works with the ancient vines in Chile’s Bio Bío and Itata Valley regions. This skin-contact wine is made with Semillon from low-yielding 100-year-old vines, which produces a deeply complex, savory orange wine. It opens with fresh green herbs and peppers on the nose, with hints of orange zest and beeswax. The palate is rich and textured, with some tannins adding structure. A really unique find for those looking for something off the beaten path.
