Description
Sauvignon Blanc
Crafted from grapes grown in rich volcanic soils, Anakena demonstrates the quality, depth and elegance only found from the finest vineyards in the foothills of the Chilean Andes.
A reflection of the mythical essence of Chilean culture, and the profound beauty of the untamed earth, these wines inspire a sense of spiritual mystery, awe and discovery. Our emblem, the Birdman (Tangata Manu), is a symbol of determination and resilience.
A crisp and refreshing wine, Anakena Sauvignon Blanc is the perfect expression of the Chilean terroir, displaying lemon and pink grapefruit aromas and flavours of tropical fruit.

History: This range of wines comes from the award-winning Anakena winery, which is nestled in the foothills of the Andes Mountains. Every Spring, the Easter Island sea bird (Manutara) lays its precious egg in coastal cliffs. The Birdman legend tells the story of how the men from Rapa Nui (Easter Island) would show their worth by swimming the long distance to the islet of Moto Nui in search of an egg. The first islander to bring it back safely was given the title of ‘Tangata Manu’, the Birdman.
Regional Information: Grown in a Mediterranean climate, this Sauvignon Blanc expresses ripe, tropical fruit flavours.
