About Louis-Antoine Luyt Pipeño Carrizal Blanco

Unscathed by phylloxera, unbound by established conventions, and amidst the extreme Andean geology, Chile boasts an emerging rich winemaking culture. From this vantage point, Louis-Antoine Luyt, at the tender age of 22, was captivated by this country and, leveraging the knowledge gleaned from his native France, embarked on his own venture to highlight the unique terroirs of the ancient plots he uncovered. Authentic terroir wines where the sea, mountains, and sun play a pivotal role in their creation. Among the various wines he has introduced to the market is Pipeño, a line crafted at the foot of the Bío Bío River, in the country's southernmost region, seeking to give voice to the local farmers' winemaking methods.

One such Pipeño wine, Louis-Antoine Luyt Pipeño Carrizal Blanco, is a white wine made from the Muscat of Alexandria grape variety, sourced from vineyards over 250 years old. Sustainable farming practices are employed with the aim of preserving the terroir's intrinsic characteristics, and the harvest is manually conducted at the optimal moment of ripeness. In the winery, following traditional winemaking methods, the grapes are placed in open wooden vats called pipas (hence the name Pipeño). The must undergoes spontaneous fermentation and maceration for three weeks with indigenous yeasts. Finally, the wine is lightly filtered and bottled shortly after fermentation to achieve a pure and authentic style.

In this manner, Louis-Antoine realizes his dream of breaking free from an overly homogeneous market and showcasing the country's most closely guarded excellences. His wine Louis-Antoine Luyt Pipeño Carrizal Blanco is a natural white that speaks volumes of the Bío Bío region in its own right.
