This blend brings together the distinct personalities of four noble grape varieties, each contributing to the symphony of flavors. The dominant Cabernet Sauvignon from El Cepillo provides structure and depth, while the Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot from Los Chacayes add complexity and nuanced layers. The Merlot from Gualtallary rounds out the blend, contributing a velvety texture and enhancing the overall harmony. Hand-harvested with meticulous care, the grapes are sourced exclusively from the renowned Uco Valley, where the terroir imparts character and individuality to each varietal. This blend is a true expression of the art of winemaking, capturing the essence of the region's rocky loam soils, high altitudes, and desertic climate.
