Algodon Gran Cuvee 2014
This blend is the union of our estate's oldest vineyards. We carefully select the year's best barrels of Malbec, Bonarda, Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah. The result is a wine of fruity, spicy and toasted character with elegance and complexity. Each varietal is individually elaborated under the microvinification technique, and after 12 months of aging our winemakers perform the assemblage, which then continues aging in French oak for an additional 12 months. It is a blend that not only expresses the quality of our old vines, but also their great potential. Production limited to 2,000 bottles (release date: October 26, 2015).
