Profundo simply translates as 'profound'. The wise and legendary Argentinian winemaker, Walter Bressia, wanted to make a wine which went beyond single varietal expression, to create something special and with passion that reflects the terroir of Agrelo and Uco Valley. A blend of 50% Malbec, 30% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Merlot and 10% Syrah. The vineyard is 3,120 feet above sea level. Practices include canopy management, with careful shoot, leaf and cluster fruit removal. The grapes are manually harvested and fermentation took place between 25-27°C. The wine was then aged in French and American oak barrels for 10 months.
