Grande Reserve: The Iconic Castel Mimi Wine

The most perfect Castel Mimi wine ever created! Every drop is the result of 130 years of tradition, history and excellence that we are proud of. A Grande Reserve that promises over 30 years of bottle evolution, produced from select Cabernet Sauvignon, Saperavi and Rara Negra grapes.

The wine matured for 28 months in the premium X-Blend series of signature barrels by the eminent master cooper Christian Radoux. The barrels were crafted from 220-year-old oaks from the French Limousin region, planted in the era of Napoleon Bonaparte, shortly before the foundations of modern winemaking were laid in Basarabia.

The intense color of the wine reveals a vibrant and slender bouquet, distinguished by nuances of dried plums and cherries, slightly smoky, gradually opening to tertiary aromas of cloves and tobacco. The palate is rich in juicy, slightly spicy red fruit sensations. The body is round, with a beautiful balance between well-integrated tannins and fine acidity. The finish is long and complex.
