BODEGAS ESCORIHUELA GASCON CABERNET SAUVIGNON GRAN RESERVA MENDOZA 2022

Bodegas Escorihuela Gascon's vineyards thrive in the exceptional terroir of Agrelo, Mendoza, where cool Andean winds create dramatic temperature variations perfect for viticulture. This low-lying area in Luján de Cuyo features sandy-loam soils that provide excellent drainage and natural vigor control, developing perfectly balanced fruit. The estate's unique microclimate, shaped by eastern hills that trap descending mountain breezes, creates the ideal environment for their Gran Reserva wines, which represent the highest expression of this distinctive Argentine terroir.

This 100% Cabernet Sauvignon Gran Reserva showcases a medium-depth ruby color with garnet highlights. The palate delivers an intense experience with ripe black fruits and strawberry jam notes, complemented by refreshing herbal characteristics typical of the varietal. Aged 12 months in French oak, the wine develops intriguing spice elements while maintaining its fruit-forward profile. Well-structured with juicy tannins, it offers a satisfying mouthfeel that culminates in a long, herb-tinged finish. Peak drinking potential extends to 10 years.
