Grapes for this wine are sourced from vineyards planted at 1,400m in San Pablo, Uco Valley. On the nose it displays refined aromas of citrus fruits, melons, star fruit, fresh dough, wild flowers and a hint of spice. There is a sense of Burgundian elegance to this wine. It is not exuberant, but subtle and precise. On the palate it is dry, displaying good tension and freshness, a creamy texture and a sophisticated finish.
