CARO is a joint venture between the Catena family and Domaines Barons de Rothschild situated in the spectacular Argentinian province, Mendoza. The estate combines the Catena family’s passion for Malbec and their expertise in nurturing vineyards on high-altitude terroir, with Domaines Barons de Rothschild’s centuries-old knowledge of cultivating great Cabernet Sauvignon. Its vineyards benefit from two terroirs: the high altitude Luján de Cuyo and the Uco Valley which sees high deserts that benefit from low night temperatures and intense rays of sun. The final blend is aged for 18 months in French oak barrels which are transported to Argentina from Pauillac.

Joaquín Hidalgo

The 2019 Caro is a blend of 64% Malbec and 36% Cabernet Sauvignon from Paraje Altamira and Gualtallary in the Uco Valley; it was aged in 80% new barrels. Purple in the glass. The nose presents notes of bay leaf, thyme and hints of plum, sour cherry, blackcurrant and mint accompanied by aromas from the aging process such as cedar, cinnamon and vanilla. A classical, nuanced wine, it has a creamy flow and juicy freshness with a lean palate, polished, finely grained, slightly lush tannins and a chalky texture. Bold and long-lasting, the fresh core is key.
