Nose
Immediate pleasant aromas of ripe plum and fig jam when served. After a few minutes, notes of black tea and licorice emerge. It has a great combination of typical Malbec black fruits and spices, characteristic of the terroir in Agrelo
Palate
A red with good structure. Honest, great purity of fruity flavors without strong sense of oak.
Growing Conditions
Located in Alto Agrelo, at the foothills of the Andes Mountain range at more than 1'000 m of altitude. Native alluvial soil. Grown on a 16 years old organic vineyard, with high density of vines (4'200/ha), and low yield (< 7'000 Kg/ha). A drip irrigation assures that each plant receives the exact amount of water necessary.
Winemaking
Organic Malbec grapes are carefully chosen in Agrelo, Luján de Cuyo, an area known as the mecca of grape production in Argentina.
Aging
The wine is stored in stainless steel tanks and concrete vats. This wine represents the true character of the varietal, for this reason, no oak is used.
Appearance
Intense violet red.
