About the Winemaker
Escándalo Wines is the Chilean project of Mauricio Veloso, an agronomist and winemaker focused on low-intervention wines from expressive Chilean valleys.
Mauricio studied and worked across Chile, California, New Zealand, and Spain before returning to Chile in 2011. He bottled the first Escándalo wine in 2015 with a simple goal: let the grape speak for itself.
Farming & Cellar: Hand harvesting, gentle fermentation, delicate pressing, native yeasts, no enzymes, steel and concrete aging, gravity settling, no filtration, and low sulfur additions.
US Natural Wine ships once a week, every Wednesday. All orders should be placed by Tuesday at noon in order to be picked up from our distributors and out on Wednesday's delivery truck.
Shipping cost is 35 bucks a box (up to 12 bottles) so we highly encourage picking up more than 1 bottle for the best value! Remember, all orders over $200 get FREE SHIPPING!
At $35, shipping cost is on par with most wine ecommerce. Ultimately, we eat the cost of shipping more often than not because wine can be damn heavy. We can't thank you enough for your understanding!
