Product Description

FROM THE WINERY

Cabernet Sauvignon is the classic grape of Los Vascos’ vineyard and is the variety on which the estate has built its reputation. The common feature of all the vintages is ripe fruit, fresh aromas, and a supple, full-bodied structure. This wine has a sparkling ruby red colour and a pleasantly fruity nose with aromas of black cherries, raspberries and plums, all with a hint of spice. This is a silky, flavourful wine, with a supple tannin structure. A great classic.

100% Cabernet Sauvignon

Vintage Notes
The 2016 season started with normal winter conditions and rains concentrated in July that did not cause any problems in our vineyards. Spring arrived with high temperatures, exceeding 35ºC, and low minimum temperatures, but without any frosts that could have affected the normal growth of the vines. Summer temperatures were high, with peaks of up to 37.9ºC in January, but gradually dropped below 30ºC in March. The only potential problem was the rain that fell during the harvest; however, careful organization and our team’s quick reactions resulted in excellent quality grapes with a refined, elegant character.

Tasting Notes
Ruby red color, plum and cherry-scented nose with hints of caramel, chocolate, tobacco and black olives. Well-structured mouthfeel, good volume, pleasant tannins; a wine with a forward personality.
