Tasting Notes
This is the main wine of the estate, a blend of 90% Malbec with 10% Tannat. The vines are an average of 30 years old planted on the best soils of the 3rd terraces covering 20 ha. The yield is 50 hl/ha. The grapes are destemmed before the fermentations and the two grape varieties are fermented separately for 3-4 weeks in stainless steel vats at 28oC. Following the fermentations, the Malbec and Tannat will be aged for 12 months in stainless still vats for the wine to settle and then a further 12 months in french oak barrels (medium toast) renew by 1/4 each year. No filtration and fining are carried out before bottling. - Importer Note
