Description

Deep and colour, with bright purple hues. Aromas od ripe red fruits such as plums and raspberries, complexed by delicate chocolate and vanilla provided by the oak. Good structure and velvety tannins give it an elegant long final. 12 months ageing in oak barrels has given this wine a real depth and great softness of texture.

The Sottano Winery is located in one of the most unique wine regions for growing high-end grapes in Mendoza. Thirty kilometres away from the City of Mendoza and on the way to Chile, Sottano Winery enjoys the magnificent Andes Mountain Range as its backdrop.

This family estate in the Pedriel district of Mendoza is run and owned by the Sottano brothers Diego, Pablo and Mauricio. It sits at 1000m altitude in the foothills of the Andes so benefiting from the warm days and cold nights typical of the region which make for well balanced and perfectly ripe grapes. The wines from this estate are rich and smooth yet maintain an elegance and balance uncommon in new world wines.
