Description

A great Argentinian wine that delights with its aromatic expression and balance

The estate

El Enemigo is the result of the mutual aspiration of Adrianna Catena and Alejandro Vigil, head winemaker of the famous Bodega Catena Zapata since 2002, to make great wines in the heart of the Mendoza region. In 2007, these two enthusiasts created El Enemigo – literally, « the enemy » - and the Bodega Aleanna winery. Success was not long in coming. Very quickly, the estate was acclaimed throughout the world for its Cabernet Franc Gran Enemigo Gualtallary. Respect for ancestral traditions shapes the wines of this prestigious estate and this passion gives rise to gourmet vintages that are highly prized by lovers of great Argentinian wines.

The vineyard

El Enemigo, near the Andes, oversees exceptional winegrowing terroirs in its Argentinian vineyard that sits at between 930 and 1,470 metres of altitude, resting on limestone, rocky and clayey soils.

The wine

This 2018 Gran Enemigo Gualtallary from El Enemigo is a Mendoza wine from the eponymous vineyard located at an altitude of 1470 metres on a stony soil composed of deep limestone.

Winemaking and ageing

The grapes were harvested over five different periods to ensure that the yield from each terroir was at full ripeness. Vinification with 40% entire bunches. Fermentation in French oak casks of 2 and 3 wines. Cold maceration over 4 days. Skin maceration on average for 26 days. Ageing for 16 months in a 100-year-old tun.

Blend

This Gran Enemigo Gualtallary 2018 from El Enemigo is the result of a blend of Cabernet Franc (85%) and Malbec (15%).
