The 2019 Grand Cabernet Sauvignon, from Paraje Altamira and Perdriel, Mendoza, was aged for up to 12 months in French barrels. Garnet red in hue. The nose offers complex but clear notes of blackcurrant, mint and sweetbrier with hints of cedar, black tea and spice. In the mouth it’s relaxed and silky with a little grip and lots of flavor before the red fruit and mint finish. A red that delivers structure, flavor and agility.

Candied-currant and sweet-tobacco aromas follow through to a full body with juicy fruit, a velvety tannin structure and a medium finish. Open and attractive now. Sustainable. Drink or hold.

The 2019 Grand Cabernet Sauvignon has more balance, elegance and varietal character and what they mention on the label, high altitude vineyards. It shows a contained 13.5% alcohol, herbal and spicy aromas, balance and freshness. The palate is medium-bodied and reveals the typical grainy tannins from the variety. This is an improvement. 10,000 bottles were filled in January 2021 after spending 18 months in barrique and oak vat.
