The Los Vascos vineyard is located 40 km from the Pacific Ocean, some 130m above sea level. The site has excellent exposure to sunlight as well as adequate water resources, semi arid soils and is frost free.

Opaque dark crimson red black colour with crimson purple hue. Aromas of blackcurrant, dark cherry and mulberry are to the fore with some underlying earthy cedar and spice notes. The palate has strong varietal character and good richness over delivering for a Cabernet Sauvignon at this price point. Generous ripe blackcurrant and mulberry flavours abound followed by some subtle tobacco like characters, a hint of cedar and spice. Very fine grained well integrated tannins. Excellent depth with medium to long blackcurrant, mulberry, tobacco and spice aftertaste.
