Mendoza, ArgentinaFrom high altitude Mendoza vineyards, this was crushed and cold soaked for 72 hours prior to ferment, to extract more intensity. It was then fermented in stainless, and rested 6-9 months in 1 and 2 year French and American oak barrels. Sweet ripe cassis, blackberry is woven with pipe tobacco, camp smoke, pepper, with grippy / ragged tannins leading this to a warming mentholated finish. Best taken now, with grilled meats / veg.Tasted: 22 February 2021Tasted by: Prices:

Mendoza, ArgentinaThis fresh-fruited cabernet sauvignon shows dark berry fruit with a dusting of graphite and toasty oak. It will certainly appeal to those seeking a fresher, more balanced cabernet style, and you can't go wrong at this price, especially if you serve it at the dinner table to tame the firm tannins.Tasted: 21 February 2021Tasted by: Prices:
