This Gran Corte represents a summary of the vineyards and varieties that Monte Quieto has in Agrelo, Vista Flores, and Ugarteche, and the varieties that are the majority. This year's version is 40% malbec, 40% cabernet franc, and 20% syrah. And you can feel the fruit and vigor of both malbec and cabernet franc, but also the seriousness of syrah, which tends to tone down the aromas and flavors and offer a more serious, more austere wine. The palate is succulent yet moderated by friendly acidity that's strong enough to provide balance. A red wine for meat lasagna.
