2022 País - Cariñena Phoenix Ferment

Garage Wine Co. was founded by Pilar Miranda and Derek Mossman, who were subsequently joined as partners by Alvaro Peña and Ernesto Muller. The winery explores and restores old vineyards in Maule. The team has achieved extremely high standards using grapes from Cauquenes, Zauzal and Truquilemu, farmed on horseback, employing ancient techniques from a modern perspective. The wines are organized by fermentation series, parcels, cru and limited editions, and each reflects the enterprise’s disruptive, earthy spirit in its own way. They offer fresh new takes on Cariñena and Semillón, while their Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon from Cauquenes and Maipo are also quite distinctive. Producing their wine in a rented space in Caliboro, Garage Wine Co. is the kind of producer that is a pleasure to discover.
