Protos '27 with the original label from the first bottle ever released by Protos, is a tribute to those 11 visionaries who founded Protos in 1927. It is produced from 100% Tinta del Pais (Tempranillo) from old vineyards of Burgos province which were planted 50 years ago. After fermentation, it matures for 16 months in new French barrels and 12 months in bottles.
It has an intense red color with violet hues, it is elegant, with fresh aromas of ripe black fruits, sweet spices, vanilla, cedar and coconut. In the mouth it is medium-bodied, a very balanced and easy-drinking wine, with round tannins, a long and very pleasant aftertaste. Enjoy it with BBQ, lamb, stews and even seafood with strong red sauces.
Atemporal means "timeless". The d'Aulan family's French heritage has shaped and characterized this blend. The French heritage inspires the Alta Vista team to produce a blend of different varieties from the same origin: Malbec, Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot from the Albaneve vineyard (Uco Valley). The three varieties are harvested, fermented and aged separately for 1 year in 225 liter French oak barrels.
Notes of violets and fruits such as plums, blackberries and figs are discernible. Light spicy notes of thyme and licorice are also left. On the palate it is a balanced ensemble: the silky nature of Malbec, the structure and power of Cabernet Sauvignon and the depth of Petit Verdot. Complex and durable, with good aging potential. It is recommended to accompany it with grilled red meats or strong, tasty and intense dishes.
