2020 Malbec
Our hand selected, ultra-premium Malbec grapes nurtured in the Los Chacayes region of the Uco Valley have aged into a dark ruby red wine with purple hues, displaying a complex and intense bouquet of red ripe fruit like plum and raspberry with delicate spicy notes. It achieves an intriguing mouthfeel with silky tannins and good acidity. You’ll enjoy the black and red berry flavors leading to an elegant long finish. This Malbec offers soft spices, caramel and tobacco flavors from its oak aging. Full-bodied with a persistent finish, it aims to please.

A brand new wine from a brand new venture that feels more like a much more established vintage. Excellent!

Loved the deep ruby red color and the full body with notes of plum, chocolate, and berries. Good with food or on its own -- you'll love the smooth finish!
