These ancient, own-rooted País vines are located 800 meters from the Bío Bío River in a dry riverbed that once held the river. The soil is particularly unique, featuring an alluvial top layer over black, sandy basaltic soils. This is “País Franco”—a nod to piè franco, meaning the vines are ungrafted, like most of Henriquez’s plantings. The name also highlights how this cuvée represents one of the most honest, pure, and expressive interpretations of the variety available.
