O Produtor, tasting note published in August 10th 2021

COLOUR
Intense bright red with hints of purple
AROMAS
Very intense aromatic expression. The bouquet of red fruit aromas (cherry, wild strawberries) and spices is intensified by the freshness and complexity of the wine.
PALATE
On the palate, the balance of this wine is predominant. A smooth, fresh attack adds a pleasant liveliness. Soft, precise tannins bring an attractive structure with an elegant finish.

Cheval des Andes

After a careful selection process, the vintage was vinified in small stainless steel vats (80hl). The 2018 vintage was aged for 14 months in oak; 2/3 in 225 litre barrels and 1/3 in larger 400 litre barrels.

70% of the wine was aged in new oak and 30% in 1-year barrels. All the barrels were made from Central French oak. The barrels used to age this vintage of Cheval des Andes were made by world-class French cooperages.

In the 2018 vintage, 100% of the grapes came from the top ‘terroirs’ of Las Compuertas and La Consulta. The resulting wines have good ageing potential and are notable for their precision, balance and freshness.
