About

Don David wines come from the Salta region, a region known to be among the highest altitudes wine growing regions in the world. The climate in Salta makes Don David wines uniquely exquisite.

Terroir

Each selection in the Don David range is sourced from entirely estate owned vineyards throughout the Cafayate Valley. Vineyards sit at elevations well above 3,000 feet with many sitting above 6,000 feet. The power of the sun at these elevations combined with very little moisture or pests leads to wines of unique purity and concentration.

Vinification

Concentration and varietal expression are the goals of both the red and white wines in this range. The red wines undergo a 5 hour thin covering maceration which extracts additional concentration followed by more than a week of cold maceration in steel tank and 9 months in the cellars in a combination of French and American oak.

Tasting Notes

Ruby red with slight hints of terracotta. Deep and dark. The colored tears on the glass denote a very good structure. Spicy. The pepper and roasted red peppers stand out, as do the notes of smoke, oak and tobacco. Intense and persistent. Elegant and balanced taste, with mature and highly attractive tannins. Notes of black fruit, spices and chocolate stand out.

Food Pairing

Ideal to serve with dishes prepared with red meats and game cooked in a plow disc, stews and hard cheeses.
