ESTATE GROWN
* 1,067 metres / 3,500 feet above sea level. “Vistalba” Terrace.
* Colour: Profound cerise with florid, rubicund highlights.
* Aroma: Freshly crushed violet flowers envelop a deep core of jam preserves and ripened plums typical of Mendoza's Vistalba region.
* Palate: Racy notes of violet and graphite, are followed by mouthfuls of dry cherries and fresh berry fruit. The luscious mid-palate, gives way to powdery tannins and a delicate herbal blend- infused finish that adds to complexity.
* Winemaking: 4 delestages and 10 pumpovers during fermentation enhanced the wine’s extraction. Only the free-run wine is moved to 80% French, 20% American oak barrels; 1/3 new, 1/3 one year old, 1/3 two years old. The wine spends close to twelve months in barrels before being lightly fined with egg whites and bottled.
