Terroir: Gala 2 is selected from the finest parcels within the estate vineyards of La Linda, La Espana, Los Nobles and Las Compuertas. Vines are on average 50 years old and sit an elevations p to 960 meters. Soils vary from limestone rubble and silt, to calcareous to sandy-loam.

Vinification: Grapes are handpicked, sorted and de-stemmed followed by cool fermentation in stainless steel vats. The wines are blended and aged in 100% new French oak casks for 14 months.

Tasting Notes… The combination of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Merlot seduces at first sight. It is a remarkably structured and elegant wine. The concentration of black fruit and toasted aromas contributed by 14 months ageing in French oak casks is crowned with a long and velvety palate.
