2018 P.S Garcia Bravado "Old Vine", Itata Valley, Chile

ABOUT THIS WINE

Itata wines evoke the history of Chilean wine. To do this, they have grafted Carignan, Grenache, Mourvèdre and Petit Verdot onto 100+ year old country vines, head-trained vines, that grow in the dry interior of the historic Itata Valley, in the Piedra Lisa vineyard.
A part of this wine comes from this vineyard, from Piedra Lisa. The other part comes from a 14-year-old Syrah vineyard that is located in an area of ​​gentle hills called Bellavista, also within the Itata Valley.
With a violet red color, aromas of black fruits and a juicy mouthfeel due to its fresh acidity, Bravado embodies the spirit of Chile.
