This Malbec's complexity and French Oak and bottle ageing create an expressive and concentrated wine with tannins that reveal infinite sensations. A lovely fruit driven Malbec with ripe fruit and a soft, juicy aftertaste.
Tasting Notes: Laden with cherry, strawberry and raspberry fruit and a faint hint of spice and smoke.

Press Comments Best Vineyard in the World - IWC, July 2020. “While several grape varieties (carmenere, tannat etc) have successfully migrated from Southern France to South America, none have acquired the star status there that malbec enjoys. Argentina’s Mendoza region now produces dozens of malbecs including this especially satisfying, well-priced example. Dark with slate influenced savouriness, it brings rich, bramble and damson flavours partnered by suggestions of allspice, sage and chocolate with good acidity but little tannin.” Brian Elliott, Daily Record, 2021.
