Carta Vieja Cabernet Sauvignon

Tasting notes

Mature cassis and vanilla aromas with a medium-bodied palate that is enhanced by fine smooth tannins.

Production notes

After picking by hand the grapes were destemmed and crushed. The must (mixture of juice and skins) was fermented in a mixture of temperature controlled stainless-steel and epoxy-lined cement tanks over 8 days. The wine was then pressed off its skins and went through malolactic fermentation to soften acidity and add further complexity. The wine was kept on its yeast lees for a short period before maturing in tanks for 4 months prior to bottling.

Food choice

Pair with Catalan dishes barbecued beef or herbed rack of lamb.
