Sensory Description:

Brilliant cherry-red in hue with magenta edges, this wine opens with vivid aromas of fresh red fruits—strawberry, plum, blackberry, and red apple—layered with floral hints of rose and nuanced spice like cinnamon. Earthy undertones add dimension. On the palate, it is juicy and brisk with high acidity and soft tannins that glide into a lingering, fruit-forward finish. Its light, refreshing profile and subtle complexity make it remarkably food-friendly and versatile.

Winemaker's Background:

Viña González Bastías is a 5-hectare, family-run estate located along the Maule River with over 200 years of winemaking tradition. Operated by fifth-generation vignerons José Luis Gómez Bastías and Daniela Lorenzo, the winery specializes in native varieties like País, Torontel, and Moscatel. Using pre-industrial methods such as bamboo pressing and clay amphora fermentation, they have brought the spirit of rural Chile to global acclaim. Their wines honor Chile’s viticultural past while redefining its natural wine future.

Serving Suggestions:

Serve slightly chilled at 14–16°C in a Burgundy glass to emphasize its fresh, red-fruit character and delicate aromatics. Pairs beautifully with cured meats, grilled chicken, tomato-based pasta dishes, charcuterie, semi-cured cheeses, and traditional Chilean fare like charquicán and porotos con rienda.

The 2022 Viña González Bastías 'País en Tinaja' is a pure, evocative wine that carries the voice of centuries-old vines and handmade craft, offering a true taste of Chile’s natural wine renaissance.
