Vineyards: The Gran Reserva range come from the first and the second terrace in Los Lingues Estate. The soil presents a matrix of rocks in different states of decomposition, mainly as fragmented alterites, which give the balance sought between vigour, productivity and quality. Mineral notes are expressed because of the balanced extraction through the deep roots.
Vinification: The vineyards are biodynamically managed, with stringent water management to preserve the terroir expression. At optimum yield of 1,5 kg per plant, the grapes are handpicked and brought to the cellar for sorting. In the tank, cold maceration (for aroma and flavor extraction) takes place over 5 days, followed by fermentation over two weeks at 75 to 79ºF. Finally, warm maceration (to extract just the most rounded and silky tannin) takes place. The final blending allows for a perfect balance between the expression and elegance of the Cabernet Sauvignon and the elegance from Tempranillo, freshness from Malbec and grip from Petit Verdot.
Terroir: Clay texture with volcanic rocks and colluvial stones.
Training system: Double Guyot.
Tasting Notes: Stand back for this serious cabernet that has a great tannin structure and some real depth. Still a little shy on the savory and earthy nose, but this already has a distinctive personality. Drink or hold.
Recommended: Decant 30 minutes before serving
