A 100% Malbec from Mendoza, Argentina, sourced from the Angélica vineyard in Lunlunta and the Nicasia vineyard in Altamira. The Angélica vines are pre-phylloxeric Massale Selections. For the 2021 vintage, grapes underwent 100% barrel fermentation in 225 to 500-litre new French oak barrels, followed by 18 months of maturation in the same vessels.
The nose opens with concentrated cassis and blueberry, then violets and an earthy undertone, with chocolate, coffee, cedar and a faint wisp of smoke. The palate is fleshy and generous, with juicy black plum and dark berry fruit, then mocha, baking spice and mineral-laced salinity, supported by very fine-grained tannins. The finish is long and luscious, with lingering sweet black and blue fruit, mineral and subtle spice.
