NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
The Los Vascos Cabernet Sauvignon Grande Reserve is a remarkable wine that showcases the best qualities of the Cabernet Sauvignon grape.On the nose, it offers an enticing bouquet of blackcurrant, blackberry, and hints of cedar and tobacco. These aromas continue to unfold on the palate, where the wine reveals its full-bodied nature and velvety texture.
The flavors of ripe black fruits are complemented by notes of vanilla, spice, and a touch of earthiness. The well-integrated tannins provide structure and balance, while the vibrant acidity adds freshness and liveliness to the wine. The finish is long and satisfying, leaving a lingering impression of dark fruits and subtle oak. It pairs wonderfully with grilled meats, hearty stews, and aged cheeses.
