Winemaker Notes

Caro 2017 from Domaine Barons de Rothschild Lafite and Nicolas Catena is a prestigious Argentine wine blending Malbec and Cabernet Sauvignon grapes.

This wine has a dark, intense colour, with hints of violet. The nose reveals a complex mix of aromas including raspberry, black pepper, violets, cloves and subtle notes of dark chocolate. On the palate, the wine is well-balanced with a refreshing acidity and ripe tannins that contribute to the harmony and smoothness of the palate.

The 2017 vintage was characterised by slightly above-average rainfall, warmer-than-usual nights at the end of summer, and an episode of frost in October. The resulting grapes showed a great balance between sugar and acidity, and the Malbec reached tannins of remarkable softness. The Cabernet Sauvignon from deeper soils had a slower maturity, while those from stony soils reached an excellent balance with their typical spicy character.

74% Malbec, 26% Cabernet Sauvignon
