Cru D’exception
Cru D’exception Malbec
During the 1990s, “vins de garaje”or “garage wines” emerged in the Bordeaux landscape with the following characteristics: made from highly concentrated grapes from a micro terroir with very low yields due to early thinning. They are vinified in a garage in tailormade tanks or small scale foudres per a detailed protocol. Designed as perfumes, these wines are concentrated, complex and have high aging potential. In 2000, Familia Deicas began to produce varietal wines of this same “haute couture” style, which is how the Cru d’Exception line was born.

The wine is racked in unused French oak barrels, where the malolactic fermentation occurs. Aged in the same barrels for a period of 18 to 24 months to complete the production process. | Recommended to serve at a temperature of 13 to 17°C (55 – 63ºF) to enjoy between 16 and 20°C (60 – 68ºF). Decantation is recommended an hour before serving. |
