Presentation
Las Huertas is the cuvée selected by the team of Viña Los Vascos for the freshness of its fruit and its suppleness. The vintages all share a mature and fruity quality, fresh aromas, and a supple and fleshy structure.
The vintage
The viticultural year has been once again characterized by very dry climatic conditions. Only 409 mm of rainfall were registered. Technical sophistication ensured a very efficient irrigation of the vineyard and vines could express themselves at their best.
Due to a cold spring, yields were lower than usual, and comparable with 2010 levels. This resulted in less berries per bunch and lower diameter of grapes, which in turn translated in an excellent concentration that boosted the quality of grapes.
Although the harvest started a week later than in 2010, the entire process was conducted under optimal weather conditions, with healthy grapes and color intensity.

Tasting
Cabernet Sauvignon 2011 has a beautiful ruby red robe, a fresh, fruity nose, and notes of strawberry and raspberry that blend smoothly with notes of black pepper, nutmeg, and bay leaf. The mouth is juicy, full-bodied and persistent. A wine that shows great personality.
