Cabernet Sauvignon 2022
Trade Tools
Global / Mendoza
These grapes were discovered at altitude in some of Mendoza’s best terroirs, including the Agrelo and Vistaflores sub-regions. Vineyards are planted at high density in the foothills of the Andes Mountains, starting above 975 meters (3,200 feet), where the altitude and poor soil result in lower yields and a cooler climate for balanced wines. Grapes are handpicked, destemmed and manually sorted, with only perfectly ripe fruit.
Harvest Note
The 2022 vintage in Mendoza began with a dry cool spring. The fall had faced a large amount of rainfall in a short amount of time. March and April were cool and dry.
Tasting Note
Aromas of black fruit and vanilla, with creamy tannins. Beautiful structure and texture framed with touches of chocolate and toffee from the oak aging. The wine will continue to develop and improve for up to five years.
