More information about Arriero Premium Blend 2016
Potpourri of red and black berries, prunes, refreshing spice, nuances of autumn leaves and elegant vanilla notes in the background. Dense structure, round tannins, long aftertaste.
With the names "Nevisca", "Zagal", "Arrieros" and "Mayoral", the wines were named after the job titles that existed in the Argentine gaucho world at that time.
An "Arriero" was a gaucho with a little more experience, who used to drive cows to Chile and therefore knew more about the landscape and its peculiarities. Hacienda del Plata's Arriero Cuvée is a ripe, complex wine.
