"A reserved red that shows bilberries, violets and fresh herbs. Medium-bodied and very compact with no shortage of blue fruit, running through the middle between fine tannins and bright acidity. 28 per cent shiraz, 28 per cent cab, 18 per cent carmenere, 12 per cent petit verdot, eight per cent cabernet franc and six per cent carignan. Drink now."

"The 2017 Ensamblaje is a multi-grape red blend of 28% Syrah, 28% Cabernet Sauvignon, 18% de Carménère, 12% Petit Verdot, 8% Cabernet Franc and 6% Carignan, quite different from the blend used in 2016. The varieties feel quite integrated, and there is creamy black fruit and some spices on the nose. The palate is medium-bodied and has fine tannins and a soft mouthful with moderate acidity. 24,148 bottles produced. It was bottled in October 2018."

Product Description:

"Casa Bauzá was born in 2011 with the “Ensamblaje Casa Bauzá”, a wine made up of Carménère, Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon grapes from our organic vineyard located in the north of the Maipo Valley. Its objective was to faithfully represent the expression of its origin, showing the full potential of each variety. To achieve this, we harvest our grapes by hand, which in turn are fermented and raised separately.

"Ensamblaje Casa Bauzá" is a wine that shows a perfect fusion between fruit and the balanced use of wood. A concentrated specimen, of great juiciness and with an exquisite acidity combined with the notes provided by its aging in wood. Without a doubt, a great exponent of the Maipo Valley.

A wine that shows a perfect fusion between fruit and the balanced use of wood." -Winery
