Winemaker Alejandro Vigil chose vines for this Cabernet from Lot 3 of the La Pirámide vineyard (3117 ft elevation) and Lot 3 from the Domingo vineyard (3675 ft elevation). The wine opens with aromas of anise, blueberry, blackberry preserves and cedar. There are flavors of dill, red bell pepper, blackberry and a long and lingering finish. This polished effort has wonderful terroir. This is an attractive and novel bottling for the price. This one would pair exceptionally well with a high end juicy burger.
