Santa Ema 2014 Rivalta

Details

Santa Ema’s celebrated limited production Rivalta red blend (87% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Carmenere, 4% Carignan, 4% Syrah) is sourced from a high elevation estate vineyard in the foothills of the Andes. Aromas and flavors of blackcurrants, herbs and spices. Full bodied, juicy with nicely-layered tannins and a savory finish. The wine spent a total of 20 months in first-use French oak barrels, divided into an initial 15-month period for aging the individual varieties separately, and then a second 5-month period for the final blend. The wine was aged for a minimum of one year in the bottle before its release to market.

Alcohol percentage: 14
