Details
Chile has proved itself to be a fine place for premium Cabernet Sauvignon, and the Casa Bollén edition is no exception. This has your classic notes of blackcurrant and black berries along with some meaty, leafy elements offset by big, grippy tannins.

Les Grands Chais is a company that is based in France although they have arms that spread across the modern world with wineries in operation in Australia, New Zealand, Chile and Argentina as well as mainland Europe. Their approach is to source exceptional fruit and make modern styles of wines that will be well received. The Good Pair Days wine team were impressed with their Chilean brands, Casa Bollén and Viña Las Niñas as well as the sparkling wines from Baron D’Arignac. On first visiting Les Grands Chais, apart from being overawed with the amount of wines at our fingertips, the team found the wines to be made with a strong focus on quality and showcasing regionality in each bottle. They each have their own story to tell and whether you are a fan of classical styles or discovering something new, they have you covered. We are excited to bring these wines to Australian shores for the first time.

Pairing guide
Big, bold and bursting with character, this stunning Cabernet Sauvignon is guaranteed to satisfy the senses. When it comes to food pairing, this wine calls out for deeply savoury flavours - we’re talking slow-cooked beef brisket, smoked meats and strong cheeses, ribeye steaks with peppercorn sauce and other hefty, hearty red meat and offal dishes. Blue cheese sauces, wild mushrooms, truffles and bitter greens like kale and broccoli will also hit the spot perfectly.
