Bressia has 320 oak barrels, almost all new French and American oak (60% French, 40% American).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eProfundo began during the era of “assemblages” in Argentina; wines from various grapes combined in different proportions, achieving a singular, complete wine with great definition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Malbec, the Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot \u0026amp; Syrah come from Lujan de Cuyo vineyards 3,100 feet above sea level.

A rich purple in color, the complex nose offers violets and white pepper with hints of ripe plum, raspberry and blackcurrant with whiffs of mint and balsam over a bed of oak. Indulgent initially, the flow grows voluminous and gentle with delicate tannins enlivened by the juicy freshness. A nuanced red of ephemeral flavor. - Joaquín Hidalgo\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e- Antonio Galloni's Vinous (November 2021), 94 pts\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\"Some coffee and vanilla character with blackberries and blueberries.
