The Garage Wine Co. was founded in 2001 with the aim of championing local growers and making small quantities of diverse, characterful wines. Canadian ex-ski-coach-turned-winemaker, Derek Mossmann Knapp, sources his grapes from a variety of local growers, vinifying each parcel separately and labelling each wine with a ‘Lot’ number to determine its source and vintage.
This is Lot #80 from 2016. It is 100% Cabernet Franc from the Pirque Vineyard in the Maipo Valley which sits at 700m elevation on an ancient riverbed. It is bold and richly fruited but has admirable freshness, subtle stoney minerality and a classically varietal herbal (bay leaf/mint) streak. This is a delicious wine of which just 11 barrels were made.
