About the El Enemigo Gran Enemigo Gualtallary Cabernet Franc 2014
A world-class and profoundly complex Cabernet Franc, the 2014 Gran Enemigo Gualtallary is a landmark vintage, famously being one of the first Argentine wines to receive a perfect 100-point score from major critics. Sourced from a high-altitude, high-density vineyard at 4,822 feet, it reflects the intense mineral character of Gualtallary’s limestone and rocky soils. This vintage exhibits a deep ruby color and an extraordinary bouquet of crushed blackberries, currants, and rose petals, layered with balsamic notes, orange peel, and sweet spices like saffron. On the palate, it is full-bodied yet remarkably weightless, showcasing a vertical structure with fine-grained, chalky tannins and a piercing acidity. The finish is exceptionally long and savory, delivering nuances of dark chocolate and crushed stones from 18 months of aging in century-old French oak foudres
A perfumed and significant red on the nose with crushed blackberries, currant bush and rose petal. Full body, fresh herbs, dense fruit and a racy finish. Very powerful.
I also tasted the 2014 Gran Enemigo Gualtallary Single Vineyard, which might take some months to come into the market. It has some balsamic aromas, medicinal hints, traces of orange peel, saffron and a touch of sweet spices. It's built around very fine tannins and a notable core of acidity that acts as backbone, giving it length and lifting up the finish. This is quite in line with the 2010 vintage, with power and freshness in a rare combination of clout and elegance only the very best wines manage to show.
