Winemaker Notes
Ruby red with attractive violet tones. Intense nose that expresses dry plums and figs, with chocolate and spices notes that provide complexity. It presents soft vanilla and chocolate notes, releasing red fruits and plums in half mouth. It has an elegant and balanced end, product of its sweet and mature tannins.
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.
