Deep red with violet overlays and complex notes of plum, raspberry, violets, and vanilla on the nose. Bright and concentrated with rounded tannins and a long finish.

The Gauchezco story began with the purchase of the historic and legendary Barrancas vineyard, in Maipu - founded in 1881 by the Governor of Mendoza Tiburcio Benegas and the site on which some of the first premium grapes for winemaking were planted in Argentina. This Family-owned winery continues to strive to make wines that truly reflect the awe-inspiring vibrancy of the Argentine terroir, and the attitude of the Gaucho - the legendary Argentine cowboys imbued with a deep connection to the earth. In addition to Barrancas, Gauchezco’s winemakers now produce wines from sites in the Uco Valley in Mendoza Province and Cafayate in Salta.

Vines are grown at 850m above sea-level, and grapes are hand selected to maintain purity of fruit. A long maceration and fermentation extracts tannin and the vibrant colour, and the wine is aged in a mixture of French and American oak for 10 months to soften and enhance its flavours.
