Sauvignon Blanc is a great warm weather sipper. Typically light, bright, and citrusy, it pairs well with the refreshing dishes of summer: a plate of oysters on ice, chilled seafood salad, cantaloupe wrapped in prosciutto, crisp summer salads, and lemon garlic marinated fish filets.<\/p>\n

You\u2019re probably already familiar with two popular choices of Sauvignon Blanc: the steely, mineral Sauvignon Blancs from France\u2019s Loire Valley (Sancerre is one) and the fragrant, grassy, tropical-fruit scented examples from New Zealand. However, Sauvignon Blanc is produced in many other regions as well.<\/p>\n

Chile, a country known for quality red wines made from Cabernet Sauvignon and Carm\u00e9n\u00e8re, is quickly becoming one of the leading producers of world-class Sauvignon Blanc.<\/strong> Today, the grape variety is the country\u2019s second most planted (after Cabernet), with many of the best offerings coming from the cool coastal region west of Santiago.<\/p>\n

The Modern Day Story<\/h2>\n

Sauvignon Blanc in Chile dates back to the early 1980s when a handful of producers began to explore the country\u2019s coastal regions. Long and skinny, most of the country is, in fact, close to the ocean. Therefore, when we talk about the coastal regions of Chile, we are talking about areas that are very<\/em> close to the sea<\/strong>, many within just a few miles. Some of the vineyards even have ocean views!<\/p>\n

One of the\u00a0pioneers of Chilean Sauvignon Blanc was Pablo Morand\u00e9 who, in 1982, planted the first vines in Casablanca, just northwest of Santiago. Morand\u00e9 was influenced by what he had seen on a visit to Carneros, California, a cool-climate area close to the San Francisco Bay, and he believed Casablanca\u2019s seaside location would provide a similar environment for growing fresh grapes.<\/p>\n

After achieving excellent results, it wasn\u2019t long before other wineries followed Morand\u00e9\u2019s lead. By the 1990s, Casablanca, which until then had focused on dairy and livestock farming, was becoming one of Chile’s most prominent areas for Sauvignon Blanc and other cool-climate grapes like Chardonnay and Pinot Noir.<\/p>\n

\u201c[In Casablanca], the extremely cool climate conditions, focus on low yields, and general water deficiency leads to a very aromatic style that\u2019s welcomed by consumers,\u201d says Stephanie Cain in vinepair.com<\/a>. \u201cIt\u2019s so popular that, since 1990, vineyards planted with Sauvignon Blanc in the region have increased 5,900 percent.\u201d<\/p>\n

The successes of Sauvignon Blanc in Casablanca led to a wave of new plantings in other coastal areas, notably in Santa Domingo<\/strong> and San Antonio<\/strong> and its sub-region Leyda Valley<\/strong>, as well as in areas further north, such as Quillota, Zapallar<\/strong> and Limar\u00ed<\/strong>, and to the south in Paradones<\/strong>. An example of a Leyda Valley Chilean Sauvignon Blanc is the Montes Limited Selection Sauvignon Blanc<\/strong>. With vineyards that enjoy a view of the sea, this refreshing, lemony Sauvignon Blanc could be taken for one from New Zealand with its bright and flashy fruit and grassy herbaceousness.<\/p>\n

Two Important Influences<\/h2>\n

Chile\u2019s coastal terroirs are marked by two major elements that contribute to the wines\u2019 character and distinct nuances: the Humboldt Current<\/strong> and the Coastal Range<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The Humboldt Current<\/strong>, a cold ocean current, provides a steady cooling effect that allows the grapes to ripen gradually. The slow ripening preserves herbal characteristics (jalape\u00f1o, asparagus, grass), as well as citrusy fruitiness (lime, lemon and grapefruit).<\/p>\n

The Coastal Range<\/strong> is a mountain range that runs from north to south along the Pacific Coast and is made up of various types of granite. While the western slopes (Leyda, San Antonio, Paredones,\u00a0Zapallar) are directly affected by\u00a0cooler maritime conditions, the eastern slopes (Casablanca,\u00a0Quillota and\u00a0Litueche) are provided with a barrier from cold sea air. These site variations, along with different soil types, result in a wide stylistic range among Chile\u2019s coastal Sauvignon Blancs, giving consumers many fine choices.<\/p>\n
