{"title":"Bío Bío Valley","description":"\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Bío Bío Valley is one of Chile’s southernmost and coolest wine regions, located in the country’s southern Central Valley. Its cool, wet climate, long growing season and significant maritime influence create ideal conditions for producing fresh, aromatic wines with vibrant acidity and distinctive character.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe region is particularly noted for crisp Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Riesling and Gewürztraminer, while Pinot Noir and other cool-climate varieties are also gaining recognition. Bío Bío’s vineyards are often relatively small and traditionally farmed, with increasing interest in sustainable and low-intervention approaches. As Chile’s wine industry continues to explore cooler southern terroirs, Bío Bío is emerging as an important source of elegant, distinctive and naturally fresh wines.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"novas-gran-reserva-riesling-2024","title":"Novas Gran Reserva Riesling 2024","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis elegant Riesling reveals its complexity gradually, unfolding layer by layer as it breathes. Initial aromas of fresh lime and honeysuckle give way to a distinctive steely minerality that speaks to the wine's terroir. On the palate, the mid-weight structure and off-dry profile create beautiful tension - bright citrus flavours are anchored by natural salinity, while a subtle flinty character persists through to the finish.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe 2024 vintage demonstrates excellent ageing potential. The wine's natural acidity and mineral backbone provide the framework for graceful development over the next 8–12 years. Early drinking reveals its vibrant freshness, yet patience will reward with deeper complexity as the wine matures. The honeysuckle florals will evolve into more honeyed, waxy notes, whilst the lime will soften into stone fruit undertones. The flinty finish will become increasingly pronounced, adding textural depth.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCellaring in a cool, dark environment will allow this Riesling to develop beautifully, making it an excellent choice for collectors seeking a wine that improves with time.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Novas","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58709401862528,"sku":"1153","price":12.29,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1012\/4483\/0080\/files\/novas-gran-reserva-riesling.jpg?v=1786987324"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.rannochscott.co.uk\/collections\/bio-bio-valley.oembed","provider":"Rannoch Scott Wines","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
