Description
With an attractive ruby red color and orange reflections on the edge, indicating its evolution in barrel and time in the bottle.
On the nose, it reveals a strong aromatic profile with notes of ripe red fruits such as cherries and plums, accompanied by jams, raisins, and sweet spices. As it opens up, hints of tobacco, leather, and a slight memory of cured meat emerge, with undertones of vanilla and bitter chocolate, a result of its long aging in barrels.
In the mouth, it has a powerful and engaging entrance, with silky yet firm tannins. Ripe fruit combines with notes of spices and a slight hint of pickles. The balance between acidity and alcohol gives it freshness and vitality, despite its long aging. The finish is long, persistent, with hints of leather, vanilla, and a touch of minerals that add complexity.
This Tempranillo is perfect for pairing with grilled red meats, such as a sirloin steak or lamb ribs. It also pairs beautifully with more intense dishes like meat stews, Iberian ham, cured meats, and semi-mature cheeses. Its structure and complexity make it perfect for enjoying during a leisurely meal or for being stored and rediscovered in the years to come.
Single Vineyard, El Cepillo, Mendoza
Este Tempranillo de cepa única proviene de El Cepillo, en el extremo sur del Valle de Uco, una región desafiante para el cultivo de la vid, conocida por sus heladas intensas. Elaborado con uvas provenientes de un viñedo plantado en 1974, este vino representa un cuidadoso trabajo en el viñedo y bodega, destacando la pasión del enólogo Brennan Firth por capturar la esencia de una variedad icónica como el Tempranillo. El largo añejamiento de 40 meses en barricas de roble francés de diferentes usos ha aportado una complejidad única a este vino exclusivo, con tan solo 576 botellas disponibles.
