Varietal
Malbec

Notes
VINEYARD: Located in Alto Agrelo, Mendoza. Planted on loam surface soil overlying bedrock in 1996. The 50 acre vineyard sits at 3100ft asl. No chemicals are used in either the vineyard or the winery.

VINIFICATION: Grapes are hand harvested and fermented for 14 days in stainless steel. The wine spends two months in bottle before release.

TASTING NOTES: This 100% Malbec showcases the best and classic qualities of Mendoza. The nose comes alive with hints of mocha, blueberry, cherries, and rose petals that lead to a rich mouth feel held up by a good structure and smooth tannins. This fruit driven wine showcases boysenberry, blackberry, cocoa and cola nut flavors on the palate. The finish is long and smooth with hints of dried herbs and cedar that encapsulate the bright and vibrant wine.
