With 250 hectares of Institute for Marketecology (IMO) and Demeter certified organic vineyards and a further 250 hectares in conversion, Emiliana is one of the world’s most important producers of Organic and Biodynamic wines. Their spectacular Biodynamic vineyard and winery at Los Robles is a model that attracts visiting viticulturalists and winemakers from all over the world. Jose Guilsasti (viticulture) and Alvaro Espinosa were key to establishing this project but there is a wealth of young talent involved including Winemaker Noelia Orts. These innovative wines are made with great care and attention and the results are inspiring.

The flagship Coyam has already become one of Chile's iconic wines. It expresses a harmony of ripe black fruit such as berries, cassis, and forest fruits, delicately blended with oak, saddle leather and vanilla notes. The palate offers well-balanced volume, soft, round tannins, and a long finish that shows both character and personality.  Try this with steak, rich casseroles, firm cheeses or roasted or bbq vegetables.

JW says: "This is fabulous stuff and shows you just how good Chile can be when you let skilled winemakers do their stuff with high quality fruit.  The blend varies slightly from vintage to vintage but Coyam is always consistently concentrated and complex with fabulous fruit and warmth."
