Nose
A fruit-forward Malbec. Presence of plum and
blackberry aromas are complemented by notes of
chocolate and tobacco.
Palate
very fresh, with soft and sweet tannins.
Harvest
The summer was mostly warm, but with great thermal amplitude (very hot days followed
by very cold days). Yields were relatively normal. The dry harvest season produced grapes
in perfect health. With medium to high alcohol levels, and acidity slightly above average,
2019 wines tend to be fresh and elegant.
Winemaking
The grapes were hand-harvested and transported in 300-kilo. Berries were manually
selected once in the winery. The juice fermented in small tanks, which allows to carry out
the fermentation process in optimal conditions, preserving the characteristics and
qualities that the vineyard lends the grapes.
Alcoholic fermentation and later maceration lasted around 20 days. Fifty percent of the
wine was aged for eight months in French oak barrels and the rest remained unoaked in
order to highlight the fruit flavors and aromas, and to maintain its soft and silky tannins.
The wine was slightly filtered using cross-flow filtration and cartridges.
Appearance
Intense violet red color.
Food Pairing
White meat, grilled vegetables, and blue cheese.
