Antigal – Aduentus Classic 2017

The Antigal Aduentus Classic 2017 is a sophisticated red blend that embodies the spirit of its name, which means “arrival” in Latin. Hailing from Antigal Winery’s high-altitude vineyards in Mendoza, Argentina, this wine is a carefully crafted cuvée that showcases the best of the region’s classic varietals.

Tasting Notes:

• Color: A deep, intense ruby red with violet hues.
• Aroma: A complex and aromatic bouquet of black and red fruits, including blackberry, cherry, and plum, beautifully intertwined with notes of spice, vanilla, and mocha from its oak aging.
• Palate: The palate is full-bodied and well-structured, with a rich, smooth texture. It delivers a powerful and concentrated flavor profile of dark fruit, complemented by sweet spice and a hint of dark chocolate. The tannins are round and silky, providing a long and elegant finish.

Finish: The wine concludes with a memorable, lingering finish that reflects its complexity and aging potential.

The Aduentus Classic 2017 is a blend that typically features Malbec, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Merlot, among other varietals.⁹ This combination results in a wine that is both powerful and balanced, making it a superb pairing for hearty meat dishes like grilled steak, roasted lamb, and rich, savory stews.
