StyleSoft & FruityRegionMauleABV12.5%Vintage2017If you're not familiar with Chile's indigenous Pais grape, critics liken it to Beaujolais as it produces a light and fruity wine. It was once Chile's most widely planted grape until Cabernet Sauvignon took over at the turn of the 21st century. It was a must-have addition to our Taste of South America collection!
The Las Mercedes Pais is fruit-forward with notes of rosehip, summer fruits and a hint of graphite. It's a great summer red, which you can enjoy chilled! -

The Bouchon family has been producing wine in Chile’s famous Maule Valley for over 120 years to great acclaim. Las Mercedes is the personal wine project of brothers Julio and Juan and sister Maria. The name is taken from the 17th Century land grants (Mercedes) that were bestowed by the Spanish Crown upon hardworking entrepreneurs who went on to plant the first vines in the valley. This young family team makes wines in the pioneering spirit of those early grape growers and winemakers, and their philosophy is summarized thus: "… to dare to make wines with absolute freedom".
