" A rich and dense red with dark berry, blueberry and mineral character. Full body, round and silky tannins and a intense finish. Very soft and silky. Balanced yet flavorful and dense. Drink now or hold. "

Product Description:

"Hails from the prestigious Alto Agrelo valley in Mendoza's Lujan de Cuyo, considered one of the most important growing sites throughout Argentina. Often referenced as “The Golden Mile”, the sandy fine-grained soils rest atop silt and clay deposits and are considered some of the best in the province."

AR GUENTOTA is "Cuyo's soul" in the language of the Huarpes Indians, the first inhabitants of Mendoza river valley's Cuyo region

Deep ruby red with violet tones. Intense and complex bouquet with red and black fruit notes (blueberry, blackberry, etc.). Balsamic and a little bit vanilla flavour. Well balanced, elegant and persistent aftertaste." - Winery
