Wine Facts
Winemaker Notes
100% Estate Grown Fruit
Grapes are hand-harvested from the Barrancas Vineyard in the Maipú region of Mendoza – with frank and stony soil. Maceration is conducted over two days at 46° F. The wine is seeded with selected yeasts and ferments at 77-82° F for 10 days. To finish this process, after malolactic fermentation, 100% of the wine is aged in American oak for eight months. It remains in the bottle for four months prior to the release date.
Serving Hints
Pascual Toso Brrancas should be served between 57 and 60.8 F. It is an ideal match for red meats, lamb, pasta and fine cheeses.
