Classic, silky, earthy.
Elki is a newish label for our market and is made by Falernia, a winery established in 1998 in the northernmost winemaking region of Chile, in the semi-arid Elqui Valley.Herbs and tangy red berries, earth, cocoa, star anise, vanilla and salted licorice aromas are expressed on this well-priced Pinot. Red fruit, botanical and earth appear on the palate, with fine spice; it has a classic Pinot character, is silky mid-palate but finishes with a little tannin texture.

Vibrant, charming, juicy.

Levity, berries, value.
Elki is a newish label for our market and is made by Falernia, a winery established in 1998 in the northernmost winemaking region of Chile, in the semi-arid Elqui Valley.Sangiovese, the king of Tuscany shows nice character in the soils of Elqui; fresh strawberry mingles with dried cherry, leather, fine spices, dried roses, leather and tobacco. The palate entry is fresh; red fruit, tealeaf, leather and spice flavours are echoed in the mouth. Medium-bodied with good levity, it's a solid red for pastas or pizza.
Coming soon.
