DESCRIPTION
Pais is possibly the oldest South American grape variety. Originally taken over as raisins by missionaries on Spanish ships to grow wine for mass. Garage Wine Co are one of our favourite small producers and this is a medium-bodied, clean, fresh and pure wine with red fruit, raspberry leaf and balsamic notes.
An absolutely top quality drop, put it in the fridge for half an hour before serving to see it at its best.
PRODUCER
Garage Wine Company
Canadian ex-ski coach, Derek Mossmann Knapp, is the enfant terrible of the Chilean wine scene. His Garage Wine Co. is the polar opposite to the big, established companies that dominate the Chilean market. Everything is done by hand; from ploughing the old vines to painting the labels.
Garage began, quite literally, in a garage in 2001. After a few informal vintages for family and friends, Chile's El Mercurio newspaper referenced 'that garage wine company' in an article about the growing grass roots movement of small wine producers. The name stuck.
Garage makes a series of small lots of eight to 17 barrels each. Working with small growers in the region, each wine Garage produces comes from a different parcel belonging to one farmer. No two farm's grapes are mixed - despite the small quantities they produce.
