Terrazas Reserva Cabernet Sauvignon

Wine information: The Terrazas Reserva wines are hand harvested from select estate vineyards within the top districts of Mendoza - Tupungato, Vistalba, Perdriel and Cruz de Piedra. Based on over 47 years of research and experimentation with local microclimates and terrain, each selected terrace has been matched with a unique varietal to express its maximum potential. Developed with extensive focus on vineyard management, and only released during excellent vintages, these wines stand out for their aromatic intensity and complexity. For this wine the free-run wine is taken to 80% French, 20% American oak barrels; 1/3 new, 1/3 one-year old, 1/3 two-year old for twelve months before bottling.

Tasting Notes: Terrazas Reserva Cabernet Sauvignon is intense, dark fuchsia with luminous red glints. The nose is stylish and generous notes of fresh currant comfiture and ground cocoa, evolve into pleasant waves of loam, tobacco and cedar as the glass is swirled. The palate overflows with dense, spicy Cabernet fruit and floral hints. Layers of earthtinged plums and chocolate showcase a formidable texture of supple tannins with a strong grip, and a lingering finish.
