Viejo Isaías Elegido is roughly an equal split of Malbec and Cabernet Sauvignon grown in the Lujan de Cuyo region of Mendoza. This high elevation sub-region experiences higher levels of sunlight compared to the lower lying valley floor, resulting in grapes with thicker skins and by extension, it produces more tannic wines. The wine is fermented in inert vessels before spending around 18 months in a combination of French and American oak that softens the tannins and contributes sweet oak spice.
