Opalo Cabernet Sauvignon 13% 75cl

More than twenty years ago, Mauricio Lorca broke with convention by creating Ópalo, a line of wines crafted without oak aging, faithful to the purity, transparency, and essence of the vineyard. Two decades on and this philosophy has come home to roost and this pioneering range has never been better. Wines that are great with food, that you want another glass of, a happy world away from the ‘fruit bombs’ of old. 

Each varietal wine is a study of the grape in question and Ópalo Cabernet Sauvignon represents the most elegant expression of this philosophy: a sincere, expressive, and precise red wine that highlights the identity of Cabernet Sauvignon from the Uco Valley. 

Harvest is carried out manually, with cluster-by-cluster selection to ensure fruit quality and preserve varietal identity. Fermented in small concrete tanks with superb natural temperature control for ten days, where it stays until it is ready for bottling. 

Garnet red color with reddish reflections. On the nose, it reveals typical varietal notes of green bell pepper accompanied by fresh fruit such as ripe strawberry and red plum. On the palate, it is balanced and persistent, with silky, well-integrated tannins that provide fluidity and elegance. The finish clearly expresses the identity of the terroir.
