El Enemigo obtains the grapes for this wine from the Adrianna Vineyard that Catena owns in the Monasterio zone at the foot of the hills of Jaboncillo in Gualtallary. Most of the blend (80%) is cabernet franc from 25-year-old vines, and the rest is malbec, all planted on calcareous and stony soils. After aging in foudres for 15 months, this wine has the area's characteristic exuberant aromas of flowers and sour cherries amid a rather friendly texture along with intense, razor-sharp acidity. Another Gran Enemigo Single Vineyards you'll need to keep your hands off of for at least five years.
