Winemaker Notes
This wine is a true Malbec blend from different vineyards – leading to highly complex aromas and flavors. Intense red color with characteristic Malbec purplish hues. Well-defined expression in the nose reminiscent of berries, ripe plums, and delicate mineral notes. Great vanilla accents from its time in oak. Soft, ripe tannins with very good acidity. Refreshing mouthfeel with the same fruity notes as in the nose. Very balanced and elegant finish.
This wine is ideal to serve with a large variety of foods, especially with meat and hard cheeses.
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.
