Winemaker Notes
Bouquet: Intense, haunting, rich in black fruit, underlined by hints of spice and tar
Taste: Smooth, supple and lingering
"Dark, dense and concentrated, this rich Argentinean Malbec shows all the complexity that the variety can offer. Packed with layers of blueberry, blackberry and flowery notes. Impressive balance showing grace and finesse on the finish."
- Juan E. Marco, Winemaker
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.
