Description

Dark ruby-coloured. Wild berry and exotically herbed and spiced edge, complemented by some cool climate aromas such as black currant and black cherry permeated by dried thyme. Firm tannins add structure to the bitter cherry and liquorice flavours, with good mineral lift to the finish. A nicely focused blend with the balance and concentration to repay cellaring. Aged in French and American oak barrels for 14 months to round out the texture of tannins. After bottling the wine was aged for at least 6 months before release.

Viticulture

The combination of high altitude and hill-side vine cultivation (870 m a.s.l.) allows for progressive and gentle grape ripening and provides poor, rocky soil that created a unique expression flavours and elegance that distinguish Aconcagua Valley wines

Vinification
