We had to bide our time while awaiting the release of the Pizo Gran Reserva. The Cabernet Sauvignon, Tempranillo and Garnacha blend sits in fine oak barrels for three years before bottling, where it rests for a further two years allowing the complex flavours to meld together, ensuring a perfectly balanced, complex wine on release. Its firm flavours will stand up to powerfully flavoured food too, roast or grilled lamb in particular.

"This Cabernet-led blend ages really well in oak. It picks up so many different aromas and flavours and after some more time in bottle, the flavours are in perfect harmony. It has power but is soft and approachable at the same time." - Alvaro Campos, Winemaker.
