Dv Catena Apelacion Lunlunta: A Unique Expression
Discover the elegance of Dv Catena Apelacion Lunlunta, a wine that reflects the richness of the Angélica vineyard in Lunlunta, Maipú, Mendoza. Crafted at 920 meters above sea level, this 100% Garnacha blends freshness and sophistication in every sip. Its 14-month aging in French oak barrels (10% new and 90% second and third use) and an additional 6 months of bottle aging contribute to its unique complexity.
Its aromas captivate with notes of fresh red fruits like strawberries and cherries, complemented by delicate herbal and spicy hints of lavender and cinnamon. On the palate, its softness, smooth tannins, and medium body are balanced with pleasant acidity, while its oak aging adds a subtle smoky touch.
Ideal for pairing with exotic dishes from American cuisine, this wine enhances flavors in recipes like maple-glazed duck, pork loin stuffed with cranberries and walnuts, or even grilled octopus with roasted garlic sauce and charred peppers. It also pairs beautifully with herb-crusted rack of lamb or a Texas-style smoked brisket.
A wine that balances tradition and innovation, designed to delight those seeking an authentic sensory experience. Dare to try it and bring a piece of Mendoza to your table!
