CASA DE UCO – WINEMAKER´S BLEND
A blend of possibilities. This wine is born from a selection of the best lots of wine in our winery, in order to make a one-of-a-kind wine that not only expresses the terroir, but also the versatility of each variety in their respective fermentation vessels. A blend of time and space. A blend between the fruit of harvests and the winemaker’s creativity. This is the profound spirit of Casa de Uco: a passion for what makes us special.

|| TASTING NOTES:
Intense ruby color, in its aromas Malbec prevails, with its notes of violets and ripe red fruit, accompanied by slight aromas of vanilla and tobacco provided by the aging; behind are spicy and mineral notes that add complexity, along with those of bell peppers and Franc herbs. In the mouth, its entry is saline and smooth; its rough tannins from the Petit Verdot, its significant weight on the palate and its juicy and taut acidity combine to round off an intense but elegant red.
