This is an elegant full-bodied wine, the fresh acidity and silky tannins framing the spicy ripe fruits and mineral notes.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLocated 11 miles from the Atlantic Ocean, the estate has more than 1,000 small vineyard blocks covering hillside slopes, which benefit from varying microclimates, different levels of humidity and an intense canopy management. Well-draining granitic soils and cooling Atlantic breezes allow the grapes to ripen steadily. The vineyards are surrounded by lush forests, palm trees, rocky soils and granite boulders. The north-facing orientation of this particular single vineyard maximises sun exposure, guaranteeing perfectly ripe Petit Verdot grapes.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003eThe hand harvested grapes were macerated for five days before fermentation in 80 hectolitre concrete tanks. Fermentation lasted one week at temperatures between 26 and 28ºC with twice daily pump overs. The wine was then aged on lees for 12-18 months in a mix of French oak barrels and 25 hectolitre casks. The oak was untoasted and fourth use.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBodega Garzón is a family-owned winery in Maldonado on the Atlantic coast in southern Uruguay.
