This wine is actually something of a diversion for La Cayetana. The other wines can be broadly characterised by tension, precision and very fine balance. This Malbec is no less impressive, but is stylistically more of a nod to the past. The grapes were picked as early as opportunity would allow, from a very, very old vineyard in Lunlunta (probably slightly later-picked than Eduardo Soler would have liked). The wine is a classic in that it evokes the immense concentration of the old-vine fruit to perfection. It is a deep, brooding, generous Malbec redolent of flowers and rich black fruits on the nose; spice and fruit cake (but not jam!) in the mouth; a Malbec that could not really be from anywhere else in Mendoza let alone Argentina; truly an example of terroir bottled.

La Cayetana is fundamentally Emilia’s project, with Eduardo’s assistance in the vineyard and tiny winery (garage!). There are plantings of Cabernet Franc, Pinot Noir, Syrah and Pedro Ximenez (Criolla Blanca). Ancient techniques such as biological ageing (maturation under flor) are practiced alongside modern precision viticulture, all with the aim of restoring the great tradition of Los Vinos de la Tierra de la Cruz de Piedra.
