Vinifikation This sensual wine embodies the refined style and sophisticated elegance of selected vines planted on our Vilafontes soils. A dominant blend of Malbec and Merlot, opulent in nature, with a defining structure of Cabernet Sauvignon. Malbec delivers black fruits and a meaty texture, while Merlot provides softness and red fruits. Each vintage is a snapshot of Mother Nature at her best, to be cellared and aged for enjoyment in the coming years. The harvest was very early, two weeks before the previous year, starting on January 30, 2015. Conditions leading up to ripeness were warm and clear. The warm yet moderate weather meant that the berries arrived in the cellar in very good condition, with very low rejection rates during individual berry sorting. The wines of this vintage were characterized by higher acidity, leading to great freshness, exceptional color, and balanced structure. The wine was aged for 22 months in 18% new French oak barriques. 68 barrels of this wine were produced.
