El Enemigo Gran Enemigo Gualtallary Single Vineyard Cabernet Franc 2020 is a premium red wine from Argentina's Mendoza wine region. This wine is made entirely from Cabernet Franc grapes grown in a single vineyard located in the Gualtallary sub-region, which is known for producing some of the region's finest wines.
The wine is dark red in color, with aromas of black fruits such as blackberry and black currant, along with hints of black pepper and tobacco. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and rich, with flavors of dark fruit, chocolate, and a hint of vanilla. The tannins are firm and well-structured, giving the wine a long and elegant finish.
This wine is aged in French oak barrels for 15 months, which adds subtle notes of oak and spice to the wine's flavor profile. It has a high alcohol content of 14.5%, which adds to its rich and intense character..
Critic Ratings
Robert Parker Wine Advocate Review - Rated 99:
The 2020 Gran Enemigo Gualtallary Single Vineyard is nothing but phenomenal. It's very fresh and balanced and, for a warm year like 2020, doesn't show any heat or excess; it's subtle and has an ethereal character within the powerful and exuberant character from Gualtallary. It fermented in concrete with indigenous yeasts and some full clusters, sometimes up to 70% of the volume. It's intense and powerful, but something makes if feel light on its feet and with great inner power. This is still young and should develop nicely in bottle and for a long time.
James Suckling Review - Rated 96:
Ink and licorice with blackberry and black olive aromas. Medium-to full-bodied with round, fine tannins that are crunchy and refined. It has a juicy undertone and a savory finish. Just a hint of cedar and caramel at the end.
Wine Specatator Review - Rated 93:
Fresh rosemary, graphite and tobacco accents meld with an elegant, orange peel–accented raspberry and plum core that reveals cocoa nib details while unfurling around a nice lift of fresh acidity, driving the flavors onto the finish structured around tannins. Drink now through 2040.
