Casas del Bosque Gran Reserva Pinot Noir

Juan Cúneo Solari founded Casas del Bosque in 1993, at a time when the Chilean wine industry was pursuing quantity over quality.

Coming from 10-15 year old vines planted in red granite hillside soils, located within the coldest and western areas of the Casablanca Valley, 18 km from the Pacific Ocean and at 250 m altitude in the single vineyard of Las Dichas.

Due to a warmer 2024 growing season, the winemaking team dialed back oak usage to better highlight the fruit’s natural quality, resulting in a ripe yet fresh expression of the variety.
