Grape Variety
Producer
A savoury wine with leather notes and a touch of dark chocolate. It is full-bodied with some grippy tannins giving a chewy, slightly austere finish. Grapes were grown on the Los Arboles estate at 1,250 metres. Vines are planted at high density of 5,500 vines/ha and are trellised high. After fermentation in concrete tanks, the wine was matured for 12 months in 90% French oak and 10% American oak barrels.
