Chilean Earthquake – Letter from our wine supplier.

 We have received this update regarding the effect of the recent earthquake on our wine supplies from the TerraMater vineyards.

“We are ok, in TerraMater everybody its safe and we are working hard to restart our normal process.
In Curico and in Maule the houses that we had in the vineyards are destroyed, but again, it is only a material loss.
We lost 2 tanks with wine because they fall, but is something that doesn’t concern us a lot since the harvest will be very soon, the vineyards are ok.
I don’t know if I could be in the UK this week since the airport is really damage and it is closed for departure flights.”

So it seems that our wine supplies from Chile will be uninterrupted dispite the major disruption caused by the earthquake.

 The TerraMater vineyards are located in the heart of Chile’s finest wine growing regions at Isla de Maipo-Curico and have belonged to the TerraMater family for decades. The 500 hectares of prime vineyards, pure water from the Andean mountains and exceptional luminosity provide the winery with top quality grapes. TerraMater is the Chilean wine brand that specializes on blends that are truly innovative, attractive and interesting.
