The beginning and end of the growing season were very wet, August very hot and dry. 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Carmenère, 10% Merlot. Matured in French oak barriques that are both new and used two and three times. A lively and intense garnet color with hues leaning towards ruby. An aroma with average intensity with vegetal, slightly floral scents. The tenuous mouthfeel is agile, fine and light, lacking a bit of verve. The finish is defined by the vegetal notes of Carmenère.
Bottles produced: 30,270; 1,512 magnums; and 22 double magnums.
