Gran Enemigo Red Blend 2020

Score: 95 pts Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate Description: Gran Enemigo Red Blend 2020 is a wine of great depth and elegance, paying tribute to Argentina’s winemaking tradition and to the inner battles that define us. Its complex composition—50% Malbec, 25% Cabernet Franc, 10% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Merlot, and 5% Petit Verdot—is expressed with remarkable harmony. On the nose, aromas of ripe black fruits, violets, and spicy notes stand out, with a mineral and earthy background characteristic of Gualtallary, Uco Valley. On the palate, it shows a velvety texture with fine tannins and vibrant freshness, balanced by precise acidity and a long, elegant finish. Despite being a warm vintage, it maintains firm structure and excellent aging potential.
