Wine No 2 from Old and New Collection

This wine is a blend of 40% Malbec, 40% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 20% Syrah, sourced from the Maipú and Agrelo regions in Mendoza, Argentina. The vineyards are planted in alluvial soil with drip irrigation and benefit from a continental, dry climate that offers excellent sun exposure, ideal for grape maturation. The vines are grown using a high trellis system, and the grapes are hand-harvested in boxes during the last week of March, with a yield of 10 tons per hectare. After cold maceration, the grapes are destemmed, crushed, and fermented for 25 days in stainless steel tanks at 26-28°C, followed by natural malolactic fermentation. The wine is aged for 18 months in first-use French and American oak barrels, then bottled for an additional 6 months. It has an intense violaceous red color, with aromas of figs, coffee, red fruits, and floral notes of violets and roses. The palate is well-balanced, with integrated flavors from barrel aging. With an alcohol content of 14.5% and total acidity of 5.70 g/L, this wine can be stored for up to 10 years. It is best served at 9-10°C accompanied by red meats and elegant dishes.
