WINE DESCRIPTION
Bodegas Etchart Arnaldo B Gran Reserva is an intense red blend from the Cafayate Valley region of Argentina. The wine is made from a blend of Malbec, Cabernet Sauvignon and Tannat. The grapes are sourced from high elevation sites, that experience higher levels of sunlight and cooler temperatures. These conditions produce grapes with thicker skins and more intense flavors that retain acidity. The winemaking process involves aging in oak barrels for resulting in a complex and velvety wine with notes spice and vanilla.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
Bodegas Etchart Arnaldo B Gran Reserva displays a deep ruby-purple hue.The nose is intense with layers of ripe, succulent dark fruit hinting at blackcurrant, blackberry and plum. The fruit flavors are accompanied by layers of bell pepper, spice and licorice. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied with a mouth-coating texture framed by velvety tannins. The decadent dark fruits are balanced by a firm core of acidity, whilst subtle oak spice makes its presence known on the persistent finish.
