Description
Angulo Innocenti Cabernet Sauvignon
Pedro Angulo & Angel Innocenti were vineyard growers in their native Europe – Pedro in the Basque country and Angel in Tuscany. They immigrated to Argentina in the late 19th century and through hard work and perseverance found great success in their commercial activities. Today the Angulo & Innocenti family has rekindled their immigrant winemaking roots. Alejandro Angulo and Mariano Innocenti, 3rd and 4th generation family members respectively, have decided to celebrate Pedro & Angel´s vintner past with the development of a unique terroir in La Consulta.
Manually harvested, yield approx 3 Tons/acre. Part of the wine is cold macerated for 5 days on skins and the other part undergoes 20 days of post-ferment maceration. Fermentation is carried out by indigenous yeasts in a combination of steel tanks and concrete vats. Malolactic fermentation is carried out spontaneously in barrels. 50% of the wine is aged 7 months in barrels.
