Tasting notes

A wine of medium intensity, red violet colour and garnet reflections. Aromas of fresh red fruit (plum and blackberry), and slightly spicy (cinnamon). Elegant, harmonious and well balanced.

Production notes

This privileged area has a particular microclimate of dry summers, warm and sunny days and cold nights. Grape development is favoured by the wide thermal range, making them reach high concentration of aromas and excellent health.From the Los Carolinos (1927) and Los Maitenes (1915) estates, located in Agrelo (Mendoza River’s High Valley), Luján de Cuyo district, and Lunlunta (Mendoza River’s High Valley), Maipú district, province of Mendoza. Alluvial, silty-loam and shallow soil.Traditional low trellis vineyards. High cultivation density; low yield vines that, associated with the varietal purity, allow for high quality grapes. Hand harvested grapes.
A moderate maceration classic method is made in stainless-steel tanks with strict temperature control, not higher than 25 °C. Once the fermentation is completed, the wine is racked, clarified, filtered and stabilized by cold temperatures. The wine is then aged during 6 months in large French-oak casks of 2,500-5,000 litres of capacity, where a development process occurs throughout the years achieving an interesting complexity of flavour and aroma.
