The sandy-clay soil at 980 masl was perfect for Cabernet Franc. Harvested at the end of March, the grapes were cold-macerated with spontaneous fermentation and then aged for 16 months in French oak foudres and barrels. This resulted in a wine of exceptionalquality and character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"otQkpb\" role=\"heading\"\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes \u0026amp; Profile\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c!--TgQPHd|||[]--\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"otQkpb\" role=\"heading\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"iNqyIf\"\u003e\u003cstrong class=\"rQesXe MPyX\"\u003eAroma:\u003c!--TgQPHd|||[]--\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e Dark balsamic spice, a savoury backbone, cacao hints, and a chocolate edge.

Following more than five years of research into soil and vineyard ecology, the project had also led to the development of a range of fine wines that were named after the flowers planted to support the vineyard ecosystem: Nassella in Gualtallary, Achillea in Paraje Altamira, and Gazania in Alto Agrelo. The first three wines – Achillea Malbec 2021, Gazania Cabernet Franc 2022 and Nassella Chardonnay 2022 – were launched in November. Whereas, from July, the Viña Artesano project will bring to market three new levels of wines which have been positioned to support the existing top-end releases. Speaking to the drinks business, Noguiez said: “We started the Artesano range with the top wines, which we call \u0026#39;the Artesano flowers\u0026#39;, and now we are arriving in the market with Piedraviva.”\u0026quot;,\u0026quot;https:\/\/encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com\/images?q\\u003dtbn:ANd9GcSDFsktkf-zXd_5u2RpOgwbEZmIBwCDzWx6f7bmlLdrKhLdtwaD04t5Al6ITYbqlIAQcs2em8DZgWdo6bM\u0026quot;,\u0026quot;The Drinks Business\u0026quot;,\u0026quot;https:\/\/encrypted-tbn1.gstatic.com\/faviconV2?url\\u003dhttps:\/\/www.thedrinksbusiness.com\\u0026client\\u003dAIM\\u0026size\\u003d128\\u0026type\\u003dFAVICON\\u0026fallback_opts\\u003dTYPE,SIZE,URL\u0026quot;,[[1788948230866322,4279963,2146588],null,null,null,null,[[2,0,1,14]]],null,\u0026quot;4ff91ebf-083c-4d88-afad-3c16a89fc1e6\u0026quot;]]--\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e flower plantings in the 980-meter Alto Agrelo plot that help regulate vine yields\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Latin Wines Online","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56240068690305,"sku":"JASC003","price":53.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1919\/9993\/files\/Gazania_Cabernet_Franc-removebg-preview.png?v=1788948501","url":"https:\/\/latinwinesonline.com\/products\/gazania-alto-argelo-cabernet-franc-2022","provider":"Latin Wines Online","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
