The fruit is what centres everything but the hands that farm and bring in the fruit are the heroes — and there are never enough of them #gwcolashiguerasvineyard

El otro extremo del pisoneo #gwcolashiguerasvineyard #gwcoharvest2021
Pisoneo a veces no es fácil. Y cuando no es fácil generalmente es cuando la fruta beneficia del contacto — después cuando es más fácil pisonear ya es muy tarde ... ... entonces se suben dos a la palanca y se aplica doble el ñeque #gwcoharvest2021 #gwcolashiguerasvineyard
Thibault (harvest shadow) loves punching down Thibault (mi sombra durante esta vendimia) ama los pisoneos #gwcoharvest2021 #gwcowinery #gwcolashiguerasvineyard
The second cut if Cab Franc from Las Higueras is proving difficult to punch down so we have a tag team on the plank over the Barco (Ship of State) #gwcoharvest2021 #gwcolashiguerasvineyard

It’s not a snake but a sincel broken when the boss was sarmentando— looks like the boss has to go to the Vulca and fix his own mess... ... oh the glamour. #gwcolashiguerasvineyard

Han skulle till Nya Zeeland för att åka skidor, men hamnade i Chile istället. Kanadensaren Derek Mossman Knapp stannade kvar i landet och blev en av grundarna till Garage Wine Company samt MOVI, en sammanslutning av småskaliga producenter.
Prövar Garages druvrena Las Higueras Cabernet Franc Lot 54 årgång 2013. Druvorna kommer från bush vines i regionen Maule. Ingen konstbevattning, manuell skörd, naturlig jäst och ingen temperaturkontroll i tankarna. Vinet lagrades 18 månader på gamla franska fat.
Tankarna går mot Bordeaux eller kanske snarare Bolgheri för här finns en generös och tät solvarm frukt parallellt med struktur och syra som stadgar upp. Inget kladd här inte. Noter av plommon, söt tobak, örter, en gnutta vått trä och ett uns vanilj. Även blyerts och svarta vinbär som får mig förbryllat att i sinnet (och på flaskan) söka efter en andel cabernet sauvignon, som alltså inte existerar i det här glaset. Toppas med silkiga men distinkta tanniner. Finurligt bygge med hög energi och bra balans mellan beståndsdelarna.
Gärna mer sånt här från Chile, håller ett öga både på producenten och movichile framöver!

After years tasting our wines to sell wine, this year for the first time we are doing tastings to sell fruit — a rather special old-vine Cab Franc fruit. Instead of buying a part of Las Higueras we have taken on all of it. Part of the job is to inspect the fruit row on row, and the other part is to taste a vertical of what we have done with the fruit : 2o17 & 2o16 barrel samples and 2o15 & 2o14 in bottle. #gwcolashiguerasvineyard #gwcoharvest2018
