Crushed-stone, too. Full-bodied, yet tight and contracted with a level of shyness to its strength. The length derives from the excellence of the cabernet. One for the cellar.

It is a joint venture between Domaines Barons de Rothschild (Lafite) and the Catena family, the title coming from the first two letters of the Catena (CA) and Rothschild (RO) family names. The enterprise was founded in 1999, and makes a small range of wines that combine Argentina's key grape variety, Malbec, with Bordeaux's Cabernet Sauvignon. The CARO vineyards occupy high-altitude terroirs in Luján de Cuyo, Maipú and the Uco Valley. These range from 2600ft (800m) above sea level in Luján de Cuyo up to 5400ft (1600m) in the Uco Valley. This has proved particularly suitable for Malbec, producing balanced, intense wines. The first vintage of CARO was produced in 2000, shortly followed by the Amancaya cuvée in 2003 which focuses primarily on Malbec. In 2010, CARO added a varietal Malbec, Aruma, to the portfolio. CARO opened its winery in central Mendoza in 2003. The grapes are harvested manually and vinified traditionally, and maceration times differ depending on the grape and vintage. Each vintage is then aged in oak barrels that are sourced largely from the Rothschild's cooperage in Bordeaux. During this aging process, the wines are stored in the winery's renovated wine cellars, which date back to between 1884 and 1895.\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"CaskCartel.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42914366718090,"sku":"","price":1709.0,"currency_code":"SEK","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0050\/2395\/7103\/files\/15_2403cb9f-b52b-4520-b972-6f5d80263430.jpg?v=1682704301","url":"https:\/\/caskcartel.com\/en-se\/products\/2017-bodegas-caro-red-blend","provider":"CaskCartel.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
