Made entirely from Malbec. This lifts out of the glass with blackberries, blueberries and wild pomegranate seed. Thistle, cedar and leather polish, oak matches the intensity of fruit. Vibrantly ripe with the added sturdy frame of firm tannins and lingering acidity. It’s a wine you’ll want to sit and inhale for hours but would equally work with a juicy sirloin and pomme puree. A seductive wine that showcases the integrity of Malbec, standing on its own. Drink now or will cellar well for another 10-12 years, this is in the infancy of its life, and an impressive journey still yet to go.
