Profile

Description

This story starts back in 1917 with Pedro Pavone Vogino, an Italian immigrant, who ventured to the Isla de Maipo in the now famous wine region of Maipo Valley, Chile. Starting off as a grape farmer, it wasn't until 1931 that he was able to purchase his own farm. By 1956, Pedro's son, Félix Pavone Arbea, founded the Santa Ema winery as it stands today. Over 100 years later, the fourth generation of Pavones continue to promote their wines on an international level. As their company has grown, so has their involvement in the community and commitment to sustainable practices. In 2011, Santa Ema became Certified Sustainable. Additionally, Santa Ema has introduced a 30km Project, in which they promote and collaborate with other entrepreneurs who are located no more than 30km from the winery itself. Santa Ema also devotes a portion of their website to advocate for the benefits of moderate wine consumption including reduced blood pressure and insulin levels, and protection against heart disease! Serve at 17 C. Drink now up to 4 years.

Pairing

We're dreaming of a spicy stew and any other favourite red meat dish! Or, keep it simple and pair it with your favourite hard cheeses.

Aromas and Flavours

Blackberry

A little sweet, a little tart, this black fruit is rather quiet but persistent.

Black currant

Sometimes also referred to as 'cassis', this black fruit tasting note is common in red wines.

Raspberry

Tangy or sweet, juicy or tart: more sophisticated than a strawberry, but just as lush.

Nutmeg-cloves

Think of the holidays - a warm and woody spice found in your favourite baked goodies.

Bell pepper

Fresh green, herbaceous notes in wine - a little is desired, a lot, not so much.
