Cautivo 2018 is one of four flagship red blends from Bodega Dos Hemisferios. It is a bold and expressive red blend from Bodega Dos Hemisferios, crafted using the appassimento technique — a traditional Italian method where grapes are partially dried before fermentation. This process concentrates sugars, aromas, and flavors, resulting in a wine of remarkable richness and depth.
For Cautivo, nature dictates the rhythm. Each year, the oenologist is guided not by rules or expectations, but by what the vineyard tells him – aroma, color, feeling. For the 2018 harvest, he chose a grape that perfectly embodied the character of that year: Malbec.
Aged for 12 months in French oak barrels, Cautivo balances the intensity of ripe fruit with a powerful structure. In the glass, it shows a deep ruby color with violet reflections, hinting at its concentration and structure.
This Malbec is anything but shy. It is a wine made for robust pairings: grilled red meats, lamb, slow-cooked stews, or aged cheeses.
Cautivo 2018 is a wine that speaks—of place, of moment, of choice. Not mass-produced, but a personal interpretation of a special year, captured in a single numbered bottle.
