Product details

  • Winemaker

    Carlos Pulenta

  • Variety

    Malbec
  • Dark, nearly opaque ruby in the glass, this wine has a nose that walks the line between floral and rich earthy aromas, incorporating scents of wildflowers and prunes, and later dark black cherry as the wine opens up. In the mouth the wine is huge, brooding, and deep, with flavours of cassis, black cherry, and graphite supported by velvet soft but burly tannins. This wine has a depth and power associated with high alcohol wines, yet carries itself like a thoroughbred - controlled and powerful.

Press ReviewPress

Boysenberry, dried plum and fruit cake nose. Concentrated and mouthfilling palate: juicy tannins and great strength.

Winemaking

This wine is aged for 18 months in French medium toasted oak barrels. Then the final coupage is bottled and kept in stowages for 10 months. All grapes are hand harvested from old vines (mostly planted in 1948). 950m above sea level, the vineyards are irrigated from the Mendoza River, through drainage channels, branches, irrigation ditches and tracks into the stony soil.
