Winemaker Notes
Impenetrable black color, bright purple rim. Ethereal nose of great complexity, with notes of red and black fruit, bergamot, lavender,
flint, and smoked cedar wood. Silky mouth, with huge structure, sustained mid palate and almost endless finish.
Most distinguished and celebrated from Argentina’s Mendoza, Malbec has seen runaway success since the early 2000s. Mendoza’s agreeable, continental climate with hot, dry summers and cold snowy winters allows the perfect conditions for growing outstanding Malbec. This grape is easy to like for its lusty, deep flavors and aromas of blackberry, plum, red cherry, autumn spice and tilled earth. It’s easy to find delicious, fruit-driven, affordable everyday examples and in prices beyond, quite exceptional ones with dense, supple textures that make them capable of aging.
