Profile & Story

Modern Age is our line of that spends less time in the Winery for its winemaking. These are wines aged briefly in concrete pools. With this line, we seek a pure and defined expression through sharp, modern and balanced wines of great texture. Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon 100% Manual harvest; 100% destemmed in square concrete tanks without epoxy, with native yeasts at an average temperature of 24ºC. With a total maceration time of 7 days. Subsequently filtered and bottled. Concrete egg aging: The wine is aged in concrete tanks for 8 months where it undergoes malolactic fermentation. Finally, it is filtered and bottled.

Tasting Notes

Tasting notes: As soon as it is poured in the glass, a well defined expression of a Cabernet from Tupungato is perceived through its loose aromas reminiscent of aguaribay (aka pepper tree) and ripe black fruits, which after a while merge with floral notes. Lightly sweet mouth attack, with medium volume and polished tannins; spicy flavors and a balanced acidity that adds freshness to it. Long finish, with a firm texture that cleanses the palate on and on, and on.

Pairing Recommendation

Recommended pairings: Perfect match for hard and spiced cheese, spicy food (Thai and Indian) and game meat.
