Introduction
Terrazas de los Andes Cabernet Sauvignon Reserva is produced in the Mendoza province of Argentina, with fruit primarily sourced from high altitude estate vineyards in Luján de Cuyo and the Uco Valley. Founded in 1996 by Moët & Hennessy on the site of a historic 1898 winery, the estate pioneered precision viticulture by matching specific grape varieties to optimal elevations between 980 and 1,250 metres. The winemaking philosophy emphasizes elegance over power, utilizing a mosaic of over 200 parcels to capture the fresh, vibrant spirit of the Andes mountain terroir.
Wine Description
This wine displays a deep red colour with purple highlights. The sensory profile is fresh and expressive, featuring aromas of ripe blackcurrant and blackberry layered with spicy notes of white pepper, dark chocolate, and tobacco. On the palate, it offers a juicy mouthfeel with a full bodied mid palate and flavours of redcurrant and plum. The finish is long and persistent, defined by firm, chalky tannins and a clean, mineral tension. Composed of 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, the wine typically has an ABV of 13.5% to 14% and is aged for 12 to 14 months in French oak barrels. The estate is currently in transition to organic certification for its high altitude vineyards.
