TASTING NOTE: Made entirely with fruit from Los Chacayes, a zone of rocky soils in the Uco Valley, this wine was aged in used barrels for 11 months. The power of the place is evident here, with the firm tannins that this mountain zone provides. The acidity is solid and the red fruit flavors are tense and very vigorous in a big wine that also offers incredibly delicious fruit and tremendous depth. Score - 94 (Patricio Tapia, guiadescorchados.cl, 2020) Price $ 19.95
Bottle Size 750 mL
