The absolute top cuvée from Amayna. The grapes come from a separate plot, the 'garden'. Unlike the other Amayna wines, this Garden Blend is not a monocépage, but a mix of Grenache, Syrah, Petit Verdot and Cabernet-Sauvignon.
This topper was first made in 2014. The 2017 is only the second batch, as the family opts to make this wine only if top quality is guaranteed. Only 1,500 bottles were manufactured!
The vineyards of the Garcés Silva family are located barely 14km from the Pacific Ocean, allowing them to enjoy a moderate microclimate. The structure of the subsoil and the gentle ocean breeze create a wine with great aromatic potential. The family has been active for 3 generations and has a great tradition in wine and agriculture. The current domain was founded by José Antonio Garcés Silva. His entire family is involved in his dream: to introduce the general public to Chilean wines of excellent quality. Year after year, the wines from the Amayna collection receive brilliant scores from Robert Parker!

Tasting
Bright ruby red color. Notes of ripe fruit, cherry liqueur, sweet spices such as cinnamon and cloves, cedar and balsamic. The mouth is smooth and luscious with concentrated flavors and firm tannins. A nice length with a pleasant, persistent acidity.
