Mendoza (Lujan de Cuyo) garagist & traditionalist. Very nice cabernet made in an understated style. Great texture & minerality. Signed bottle brought home to me by my sister.

Nov 17th, 2016Our final bottle in the case of 2006 Carmelo Patti’s legendary Cabernet. Drinking to celebrate a huge savings milestone for us that we’ve been working towards for a couple years. 😃🍷
The cork completely disintegrated so had to do my best filtering job on this one.
Color: ruby center with browning edges. a beautiful faded musty looking glass of wine.
Nose: getting a lot of stewed fruits on the nose. really deep cedar / cigar box and some leather. maybe some coffee as well. a very bordeaux style nose.
Palate. Oh my god is this good. Still such vibrant fruit, black plum mixed with some mocha and dusty old leather. Really lengthy finish. A soulful glass of wine, very old world.

This guy is a well-known garagiste in Argentina. He buys his grapes very selectively and makes his wine in a combination of cement tanks, oak barrels and bottle aging. The result is really great. A tannic but well balanced cabernet sauvignon with a somewhat earthy and spicy quality followed by a total punch to the gut of dark fruit.
