Nose
Spicy and highly complex fruit. Chocolate and sweet aromas from the aging in French oak also stand out.
Palate
In the mouth it presents a great freshness, typical of this harvest, with low alcohol and marked natural acidity. The concentration of flavors and the persistence make of this, a typical Cabernet franc of cold areas.
Growing Conditions
The grapes come from our single vineyard located in Vistaflores, Tunuyán, Uco Valley at 1054 m.a.s.l. (3428 ft). We have a sandy loam soil in the higher levels of the vineyard and stones in the lower parts so we can divide the vineyard into parcels thus generating greater diversity. This allows us to produce a greater variety of wines from the same vineyard. The drip irrigation system in our vineyard sources from the snowmelting of the high peaks.
Harvest
The grapes were harvested the first two weeks of April.
Winemaking
Produced in concrete ovoid vessels with a short cold maceration for 24 hours. 7-day fermentation at 28-30 °C with native yeasts to preserve the influence of its terroir. Total maceration 21 days.
Appearance
Intense reddish tones.
