WINEMAKER NOTES
This property has an area of 200 hectares of which 70 are already planted with Malbec, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Moscatel, Bonarda, Syrah and Tannat. 40 hectares are of Almond trees, and complementing the landscape we also have olive trees, poplars and rose bushes, each one with specific functions. The area is characterized by having a stony soil due to its proximity to the Mendoza River. It has a sandy and stony soil, of alluvial origin, with very good drainage, quite homogeneous in its composition. During the maturation period, the thermal amplitude can reach 23 degrees. For irrigation, water from 2 wells is used and it is carried to each plant through a pressurized system with drippers.
TASTING NOTES
This Malbec has a great color intensity with deep red and black tones. On the nose, notes of black fruits such as fig and plum are perceived, intertwined with the aromas of chocolate and coffee provided by its aging in oak. On the palate it has a sweet and elegant entry with a good step that shows its personality.
