ABOUT THIS WINE
The Garage Wine Renacido Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2020 is a unique red wine from Chile's Maule region, specifically Cauquenes. Its distinctive character stems from the use of ancient País vines that were regrafted to Cabernet Sauvignon ten years prior to the vintage. The vineyard has maintained uncertified organic farming practices for over 75 years. The wine is produced by Garage Wine Co. (Vitivinicola Two Winters Ltda), a producer dedicated to working with old vines and traditional terroirs in Chile, often utilizing hands-on winemaking methods. The 2020 vintage specifically aimed for finesse and tension in its profile.

WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Garage Wine Renacido Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2020 is produced using traditional winemaking techniques. The grapes are fermented in open lagars with indigenous yeasts, and a small portion of whole clusters are foot-trodden.
