Even after all these years, the grape variety Cabernet Sauvignon Dominio de Valdepusa by Marques de Grinon impresses with its great expressiveness.
The glass is filled with an intense ruby red color. This spicy red wine delights with an aromatic bouquet of currants and blackberries. On the palate, this Spanish red wine is very elegant, the tannins are beautifully integrated. The multi-layered body harmonizes wonderfully with the concentrated, dense texture. The finale is long lasting and wonderfully present.
Vinification of the Marques de Grinon Cabernet Sauvignon
The vineyard from the Spanish cultivation region D.O. Dominio de Valdepusa comes from 22-year-old vines on average and grows on calcareous and loamy soils.
The grapes are carefully picked by hand during the harvest period from September to October. In the wine cellar of Marques de Grinon, the grapes are gently pressed and then fermented in stainless steel tanks.
