Saraband 2015

Slow, dignified, with quiet complexity – that's how a sarabande sounds, that's how this wine tastes.

This cuvée is the heart of our winery and is made each year from all of our estate's red grape varieties. Thanks to Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Malbec, it unfolds flavors of dark berries, cocoa, and graphite, underscored by the earthy notes of Cabernet Franc. Typically, 18 months of aging in mostly used barriques lends depth without heaviness. A multi-layered red wine that invites contemplation and gains in complexity with each passing year.
