Visit to Bodega Ocean - Part 1 Seventh

Oceano La Bodega is located in Viedma - Rio Black and only sell their wines to foreign markets, currently being sold to Australia, Brazil and understand that something the U.S.. 19/11 On Friday I was invited to visit the winery and I was able to see the current status of the project and the desire that the brothers put this Lascano.

I am forced to sever the note because I tried too hard and dialogue samples from the steel tanks and oak barrels, accompanied by Jorge Lascano.

The winery has a production capacity of 275,000 liters and in 2010 it produced 120,000 liters on the other hand and in order to access foreign markets the wines are made organically and with very low levels of sulfites. I was very interested to observe care in monitoring and "traceability" of the wine from the vineyard, to the steel tanks and oak. That is, vinified separately and are not just pictures of grapes, but what level of detail rows in order to make wine every part of the crop at its optimum maturity.

Finally, Jorge told me that at year end would be facing and sales in the domestic market, with some lines of wine.

Let the white wine, a Sauvignon Blanc that had ever tried at other times in the bottle, now I also try from tanks harvest 2009 and 2010:

OVERSEAS Sauvignon Blanc:

2007 (export to USA): golden yellow evolved. Mild aroma with pineapple, butter and a little sherry for his age. In the mouth it is smooth and round, with moderate acidity present in the center of the mouth and persistent media.

2009 (stainless steel tank.) pale yellow. Mild aroma of pineapple and caramel - smoking. In the mouth it is smooth, cool and smooth with medium acidity, center forward presence in the mouth and medium persistence.

2010 (stainless steel tank.) yellow and greenish. Aromas of pineapple and pink grapefruit. In the mouth is nervous, delicate and penetrating, with very good acidity, presence center - side of the mouth and high persistence.

Conclusion: I had really enjoyed the time in 2007 I tried it, but today is very advanced, but also no longer for sale, but lost a bottle in the cellar, which was the one who tried. All three have this pineapple aroma and persistence in the medium to medium / high. The 2009 Sauvignon Blanc is a typical Patagonian without the aromatic descriptor "cat pee" often have some SB de Mendoza.
2010 is a "great wine", with very good volume of aroma, a lot of concentration, excellent acidity and a persistent medium / high.

When we talked about the high concentration of 2010, Jorge I noted that the steel tank was smaller than that of 2009. It happened that in 2010 earned less grapes because the weather was less kind, and was obtained less wine and more concentration on its features, result: a vinasse.

Note: the warehouse informed me that in the domestic market will only harvest of the Sauvignon Blanc 2010, SB 2009 will go outside.

Wine tasting previously started with a glass of sparkling wine, Mary, I will not describe, but if I comment it one of the sparkling consumption usually prepared by Charmat method in steel tanks, 80% Chardonnay / 20% Pinot Noir and good value for money. Has a slight sweetness to dislike me a little because my taste is very dry, however it is what they like in the local market, is highly recommended.

Let reds:

Septima Tempranillo 2006 - $ 34 : garnet evolved shallow. Tertiary aromas, raisins, ripe plum and wood / snuff, some of the characteristic aroma of wines from Bodegas Lopez. In the mouth it is delicate, fresh and light, with Grad Alc. 14 °. It has good balance in the middle of the mouth, with slightly elevated acidity and medium persistence.

Seventh
Malbec 2009 - $ 34 : ruby \u200b\u200bred with violet reflections and average depth. Fruity aroma of red fruit, some raspberry / cherry and vanilla from the wood. In the mouth it is sharp and tannic with Grad Alc. 14 °. Unbalanced forward of the mouth with a slightly sweet attack, noticeable tannins still young and untamed, has medium persistence.

Seventh Day Cabernet 2008 - $ 54 : Bordeaux red of mean and great depth. Slightly fruity aroma, but also spicy / earthy, nuts?, Without the typical green pepper variety (that is accentuated in Cafayate Cabernet). In the mouth it is structured, round and with a slight astringency in the end, with Grad Alc. 14.5 °. Great balance in the mouth to be a varietal Cabernet, something is going backwards by its slight bitterness and astringency, but again it has great balance, with persistent medium / high.

Seventh Day Malbec 2008 - $ 54 : evolution almost ruby \u200b\u200bred with violet reflections and average depth. Aroma fruity, red and black fruit with some vanilla and chocolate wood. In the mouth it is fleshy, full and delicate, with Grad Alc. 14.5 °. Unbalanced center forward in the mouth with sweet and persistent attack medium / high.
is very pleasant on the nose and silky in the mouth.

CONCLUSION: in general refers to the Seventh Tempranillo 2006 was the most liked, it was stressed much delicacy and balance, great wine with this value.


After talking with some friends, frequent visitors to the Vinopolis tasting, enough of the Seventh Day spoke Cabernet 2008, from its very good balance to be a varietal Cabernet and the preference of many men with this strain.

I must say I really like this Cabernet and especially remember the 2005 vintage, however I got to prove "bottle" and at dinner that night the Seventh Malbec Day 2008, I liked the aroma, and silky in the mouth was a persisting Quite right for your price range.
