A blend of 45% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Merlot, 12% Malbec and 3% Cabernet Franc, the 2016 Trutina begins with inky dark fruits and spice tones that fill the glass with a heavy concentration. Medium to full-bodied, the palate shows a more direct approach, still showing a concentrated fruit core, then giving way to a tight tannic grip across the mid-palate. This Bordeaux-style blend ends with a lingering finish, showing considerable quality for the price. Just under 7,000 cases were made.
