Located in the South of Chile, in the region of Bio-Bio, Tinto de Rulo is the project of three friends with the same dream, to make artisanal, terroir driven wines. To make this dry red wine, they sourced 70 year Pais vines, grown organically in granite soil. The wine was fermented with native yeast in both old, neutral barrels and clay amphora.
