This award-winning Gran Reserva Syrah is made from grapes grown in Casas del Bosque's cool climate Casablanca vineyard. Vibrant and elegant with intense aromas, it sees 12 months ageing French Oak.
Blackberries and blueberries with black pepper notes on the nose. Black olives and meaty notes combine on the palate which is full-bodied, with structure and freshness. Vibrant, upright acidity is the most distinctive characteristic of this great cool-climate Syrah. Soft tannins with a long, clean finish. Will reward careful cellaring...

Casas del Bosque
The Cuneo family, (originally from Italy), founded Casas del Bosque in 1993 in the Casablanca Valley, 70 kilometres from Santiago, the capital of Chile, and 40 kilometres from the port of Valparaiso (UNESCO World Heritage Site). The large and ancient forests of pine and olive trees, and small white adobe houses, gave rise to the name "Casas del Bosque", meaning “forest houses”.
Today the estate covers 153,64 hectares of vineyard in the Casablanca Valley, dedicated exclusively to the production of cool climate varieties such as Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Riesling, Pinot Noir and Syrah, with a focus on sustainable viticulture. Cabernet Sauvignon and Carmenere come from carefully managed vineyards in Maipo, Colchagua and Cachapoal.
Chief Winemaker Alberto Guolo is originally from Monselice, Italy. After graduating from the University of Padua, he continued his studies of viticulture and vinification, working in wineries in Italy, New Zealand and California. He joined the winemaking team at Casas del Bosque in 2017 and in 2023 was awarded “Young Winemaker of the Year” by the CAV. In addition to his tireless work at Casas del Bosque, Alberto owns a winery founded by his grandfather, in the Veneto region of Italy, producing a diverse array of mainly indigenous varieties including Prosecco.
Recognised internationally as one of the most prestigious wineries in the Casablanca Valley, Casas del Bosque have been repeatedly ranked as one of the best vineyards to visit in the world and welcome thousands of tourists every month to their award-winning estate and restaurants.
