La Mano Derecha Reserva Cabernet Sauvignon

ABOUT THE WINE

We've long loved the verve, minerality and ripe suppleness that Gualtallary offers to Cabernet Sauvignon fruit. This vineyard combined with fruit from Agrelo really makes this a stand out. Farmed organically.

TASTING NOTES

Ripe plums, chocolate, honey, and faint nutmeg make this a very interesting Cabernet. Medium to full-bodied palate has juicy fruit, and fine-grained tannins in a finish mixing smoky notes and a fresh herbal touch. 2% Petit Verdot and 3% Cab/Franc add some complexity.
