Agricola Grillos Cantores' "Mi Nena" Corinto is a distinctive white wine from Chile's Itata Valley, crafted by winemaker Paco Leyton. This wine is made from the Corinto grape, also known as Chasselas, sourced from a vineyard planted in the late 1800s. 

Winemaker & Philosophy: Paco Leyton, associated with Clos des Fous, initiated Agricola Grillos Cantores in 2019. His approach emphasizes minimal intervention, allowing the unique characteristics of the Corinto grape and the vineyard's terroir to shine through.

Grape Variety & Terroir: The Corinto grapes are harvested from head-trained, bush vines located in the La Leonora subregion of Guarilihue, Itata. The vineyard's white silty, sandy, and granitic soils, rich in mica and quartz, contribute to the wine's mineral-driven profile.
