Garage Wine Co. País Single Fermented Series 215 BC Ferment 2018

92 points Luis Gutiérrez (Wine Advocate): "The 2018 País 215 BC Ferment is part of the Single Ferment Series, meaning the wine is produced with fruit from different vineyards (three vineyards and different zones in this case, mostly in Cauquenes, crossing into Empedrado) fermented together, and the 215 BC means the País grape was there 215 years before Cabernet... The second and third batches of fruit were added when they were ready and put on top of the tank already fermenting. One continuous ferment. This feels darker and more serious than the majority of País out there, aged in old barrels for one winter. It has more complexity and depth, ripe flavors and round tannins, without any rusticity, but with the character of the grape and the granite soils. It has moderate alcohol and great balance, with a lively palate and great purity. Drink: 2020-2023. (Feb 2020)"
