Harmony of Blend, Oak Finesse and the Essence of Valle de Guadalupe
The Las Nubes Nimbus Red Wine 750 ml embodies the elegance, passion, and respect for the terroir of Bodega Las Nubes in Ensenada, Baja California. Designed by renowned winemaker Víctor Torres Alegre, this wine is a masterful blend composed of 40% Merlot, 30% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 30% Tempranillo, meticulously selected from vineyards that benefit from the benevolent influence of the Mediterranean climate and the Pacific Ocean's sea breezes. Each varietal is precisely vinified, and the resulting wine is aged for 12 months in French and American oak barrels (with one-third new barrels), achieving rounded tannins without overshadowing the fruit. Categorically classified as a dry red wine, it stands out for its striking plum red color with purplish and orangish hues of maturity, a nose rich in notes of cassis, plum, pepper, and noble wood, culminating in a silky, balanced palate with a remarkable gastronomic vocation.
