GRAN ENEMIGO - AGRELO 2018
Gran Enemigo - Agrelo 2018
Region: Agrelo, Mendoza, Argentina
Grape: Cabernet Franc (85%), Malbec (15%)
Rating: 96/100 (James Suckling)
Tasting: Intense and complex with notes of ripe blackberries, black cherries, and cassis. Hints of violets, graphite, and subtle herbal nuances. Full-bodied with firm, velvety tannins, vibrant acidity, and a long, sophisticated finish.
Pairing: Excellent with grilled ribeye steak, lamb chops, venison, or aged hard cheeses.
Producer: Gran Enemigo is a collaboration between Alejandro Vigil, chief winemaker at Catena Zapata, and Adrianna Catena, daughter of Nicolás Catena. This project aims to showcase the potential of Cabernet Franc in Argentina's high-altitude vineyards. The Agrelo vineyard, situated at 980 metres above sea level, benefits from cool nights and calcareous soils, producing wines of remarkable depth and elegance. Vigil's innovative approach, including the use of concrete eggs for fermentation and ageing, results in wines that beautifully express their terroir. The 2018 vintage exemplifies Gran Enemigo's commitment to crafting world-class wines that challenge perceptions of Argentine viticulture.
