Winemaker’s Background:
Galactica sources its Sauvignon Blanc from two high-quality vineyards in Chile’s Central Valley, 80% from the cool-climate Yerbas Buenas in the Maule foothills of the Andes, and 20% from Los Alamos in Curicó. Both sites are sustainably farmed, and the winery is committed to environmentally conscious practices. With stainless steel fermentation and no oak influence, the style is fresh, pure, and fruit-forward.
