Description

Viu 1 is the emblematic Icon Wine of Viu Manent, a tribute to the founder of the vineyard, Don Miguel Viu Manent.

This elegant wine represents all of Viu Manent's experience and specialization in Malbec.

It is a unique wine, limited edition and numbered bottles that are produced from a rigorous selection of our best grapes.

It comes from the old Malbec vines of barracks No. 4 of the San Carlos vineyard, established in that place more than one hundred years ago.

These naturally balanced vines due to their age, have a very low production of grapes from very small clusters, with an extraordinary concentration of fruit.

CATA's notes

Deep cherry red color.

On the nose, this Viu1 stands out for its elegance, character and clarity, with aromas of red and blue fruits, fresh plum, violets and mineral notes.

In the mouth it is a wine of great balance, with fine tannins, fresh, juicy, deep, defined, with a lot of energy and persistence.
