Very intense red with violet tinges. Red fruits (cherry, currant) and a touch of plum are alive in the nose in this very accomplished red. French oak imparts toasted notes, while the American barrel extends its classic vanilla. Full bodied palate yet refined, thanks to its concentrated fruit character buttressed by a tannic structure characteristic of Cahors reds.
Pair with grilled and roasted red meat, beef tenderloin with vegetables, roast lamb, meat pie and potatoes, wild rabbit Cacciatore (hunter style), chicken pie, beef empanadas.
Wine Advocate Review:
The 2020 Malbec was produced with fruit from Valle de Uco and matured in new and used French oak barrels for 12 months. It has a clean profile, varietal and heady, reflecting a warm and dry year, with notes of flowers and berries and integrated oak. The palate is medium-bodied and shows abundant, slightly dusty tannins. It will be better with food. 290,000 bottles produced. Anticipated Maturity: 2022-2026
