Making notes Enate Cabernet - Cabernet

Notas del Viñedo

The winery vineyard, some 500 hectares own, is divided by the municipalities of High Salas, Low Salas, Creenzán and Barbastro. Located about 600 meters of altitude on little fertile limestone floors.

Making notes

The vintage ripped on August 13 after a wave of heat that invaded the Somontan with very high temperatures, both diurnal and nightly. Fermentation was developed in stainless steel tanks at 24 ° C and maceration with skins lasted for three weeks. The wine was discovered to new French oak barrel to perform malolactic fermentation. Aging 18 months in new French oak barrels.

Climatología

After an extremely dry winter, the spring rains (April in particular) were a balm so that the plant could properly carry out flowering and sprouting. The most remarkable aspect of the 2012 vintage was low yield per hectare obtained in white varieties, consequence of the early morning frost on April 17.
