Laura Hartwig Selección del Viticultor Block Nogales Cabernet Sauvignon 2018

Tasting Notes

Selección del Viticultor comes from old vineyards planted on the Hartwig property in Santa Cruz in 1980. The wine spent a year in barrels and then another nine months in cement eggs. This cabernet has the hallmark of the house wines - the softness and balance, along with the sweet ripe fruits characteristic of a warm area like Colchagua. In an excellent year with moderate temperatures, this cabernet also seems to have more nerve and sharper, more piercing tannins that maintain tension in a faithful representative of the valley's cabernets.
