Taste: Deep violet red with highlights in the same tone. Brilliant and agile in the glass. Fruit forward with earthy notes. Displays aromas of black and red fruits such as plums, black cherries, blueberries and blackberries. Such aromas are followed by notes of violets, aromatic herbs, thyme and rosemary, with balsamic hints that define the character and complexity of High altitude, cool climate Malbecs. Pleasant mouthfeel with a very tasty and refreshing mid-palate and vibrant acidity. Medium-bodied, with juicy tannins that provide strength and a long finish. Fruity and spicy aftertaste with earthy notes. A red that is true to its origin.
