Mascota Vineyards
Rodolfo Sadler took his first steps at making wine 27 years ago. His decision to become a winemaker was partly influenced by the family's winemaking tradition and their passion for wine. As a little boy he used to see his grandfather and father engaged in their winemaking tasks and always wished he could one day make his own wines of which to feel proud. The wines of Mascota Vineyards are the outcome of that dream. They have Rodolfo’s (”Opi”) personal imprint and are a testimony of his life story and the demonstration that when passion and enthusiasm are poured into what one does dreams will know no boundaries and international recognition will follow.
Description
Intense purple-red colour with ruby hues. Crisp, mineral cherry aromas are accompanied by complex notes of dune herbs. On the palate, a balanced use of oak is a perfectly complemented by fresh impressions of black fruits, jam and vanilla and a subtle touch of liquorice. Great structure and lingering finish.
Food Pairing
Although it will match to perfection any grilled or stewed meat dishes, it will also pair very well with preparations such as flavourful terrines, Chili con carne, beef burritos and medium-hot lamb curries.
