El Enemigo 'Gran Enemigo' Red Blend 2021

The Gran Enemigo Red Blend is a combination of Malbec (50%), Cabernet Franc (30%), Cabernet Sauvignon (15%) and Merlot (5%) produced by cult Argentinian winery El Enemigo. The grapes were harvested by hand over five separate passes of the vineyard, spanning 1.5 months, to ensure optimal ripeness and balance. At the winery 20% of the grapes were fermented as whole bunches, imparting further complexity. Maturation lasted 16 months in concrete vats. Aromas of blackberry, blueberry and herbal notes are accented by cardamom, liquorice, and floral nuances. Velvety with remarkable balance and freshness, and layers of ripe dark fruit, savoury undertones and a saline edge.

Vintage Availability

We endeavour to display accurate and current vintages on all our wines listed on the website; however, from time to time stocks of the vintage listed do become exhausted. If this is the case with your order we will always contact you to recommend another vintage of the same wine, if it is still available. If the vintage of a wine is important to you then please leave a note at checkout advising us of this. 

 

Stock Availability

 

As we are retail stockists, selling from our Ledston shop as well as online, it makes it difficult for us to show a 'real-time' inventory of our wines and spirits online. As such, very occasionally, a wine may be out of stock that the website has allowed you to order.

To ensure a timely delivery, we are happy to substitute your order with a similar wine of equal or higher value and at no additional cost to you!

If this is not an acceptable solution please advise us in the 'Add A Comment' section at the checkout.
