Just 14km from the mighty Pacific roar, Leyda is one
of Chile’s most exciting cool-climate wine regions.
Varietals planted here, including Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Syrah have bags of character, thanks to Leyda’s
distinctive personality.
And now you can experience it for yourself; join Carolina Rivera direct from Viña
Leyda for a night of fantastic wines and beautifully matched dishes from Gordon Ramsay’s City venue Bread Street
Kitchen. The five-wine, four-course menu costs just £65 and features stone bass carpaccio, slow-roast pork belly and chocolate fondant.
Few wineries
encapsulate the development of cool-climate winemaking in Chile as well as pioneering Viña Leyda. They were the first producer to explore the sweeping coastal area and are considered to be a
rising star of New World winemaking. If Casablanca Valley represents Chile’s first tentative steps into cool-climate production, Leyda is a series of determined, confident strides and
Viña Leyda now has more than 200 hectares under vine. The fruits of their labours are reflected not just in the impeccable Reserva range, but in the exciting series of single vineyard and
single plot wines, including Sauvignon Blanc, Riesling, Chardonnay and top-quality Pinot Noirs.
