Argentina has almost made the Malbec grape its own and on this evidence it's not difficult to see why. A port style wine with immensely concentrated, spicy bramble and raisin character. Rich and ripe with a well balanced sweetness and a long finish.
COLOR Red purple color of medium intensity, with light brown hues due to its ageing
AROMA Very seductive aromas of ripe plums, black fruits marmalade, dried figs and nuts. A rich, complex wine with final spicy notes like cinnamon, toasted almonds and leather
FLAVOR Sweet tannins, silky, full-bodied, pleasant. With long finish |
