Ana Maria Cumsille Aguila Pais 2022

12.5% abv

Vol- 75cl

The nose evokes aromas of small red fruits, with hints of spice and forest floor. There is also a minty note that runs through the core of the wine, a flavour often found in old vine Pais. In the mouth it has firm but delicate tannins, characteristic of the country’s typicity, but at the same time the wine is very elegant and glides across the palate. Above all, this is a wine of harmony and lightness. Its dangerously quaffable.

This wine won not only best Pais but best wine overall from Itata by the prestigious Catad’Or awards. The grapes from this tiny one hectare parcel are over 200 years old and belong to grower Adrian Torres. The wine was fermented in small clay amphora for 15 days and then went to maturation in old oak barrels for 12 month. The wine is bottled and spends another year in bottle before being released.

“The 2022 Aguila is a more red-fruited, aromatically introverted showing of these 200-year-old vines from Ranquil. The palate offers a similar concentration to the 2023 I tasted next to it, with a touch more succulence and granitic lift through the delicate, understated finish. While I slightly prefer the recent vintage’s finish and more lively floral aromas, this remains an atypically pure and seamless expression of País.”

Ana Maria Cumsille

Ana Maria Cumsille has been making wine for multiple decades starting out at commercial wineries. She fell in love with Itata and over the years made friends with several families who farm small parcels of old bush vines in the Itata subregions of Guarilihue, Cerro Verde, Trehuaco, and Ranquil. Ana Maria decided to start buying fruit from these families so she could make single vineyard wines from different, small vineyards that grow Carignan, Cinsault, Pais, and Malbec among other varietals. Ana Maria is a lover of the outdoors and she lives in Santiago and is deeply involved in the Chilean wine scene. Recognised as ‘Winemaker Revelation of the Year 2023’ by Descorchados and one of the world’s top 100 winemakers by The Drinks business, Ana Maria has fast become one of the leading lights in the Chilean wine scene and a true champion of the wines of Itata.
