The Gran Reserva wines are made using grapes from specially selected sites within Viu Manent’s estate. They are defined by their greater body and complexity whilst maintaining elegance and balance. The Malbec is from the San Carlos Vineyard located close to Cunaco where old vines produce grapes of great quality and concentration. The climate is characterised by warm summer days with cool nights and cooling breezes from the Pacific Ocean and winds from the Andes. | |

Tasting note |
Deep and intense purple in color. The elegant nose features aromas of red fruits, forest fruits, cherries, blueberries, and subtle notes of black pepper and blond tobacco that lend complexity. The palate offers notes of red fruits and wild blackberries accompanied by tremendous structure and fresh acidity. The wine is very intense and vibrant with well-rounded tannins and a long and complex finish.

85 points, Luis Gutierrez, June 2014'The 2012 Gran Reserva Malbec feels very ripe, with notes of prunes and cherries in liqueur and earthy hints. The palate is lush and round, but the taste of raisins takes over big time.' www.eRobertParker.com |
