The Solanera Viņas Viejas is crafted from hand-harvested grapes. It's composed of 65% Monastrell, 20% Cabernet Sauvignon and 15% Tintorera and was aged in 80% French and 20% American oak. The resulting wine will be rich and dense, with excellent clarity to the dark fruit tones. This will be at its best now through 2020+. |
