Colores Del Sol Malbec (75cl, 13.5%)

Colores Del Sol Malbec is a 100% Malbec from Luján de Cuyo, Mendoza, Argentina, bottled at 13.5% ABV in a 750ml bottle. The fruit comes exclusively from vineyards in Luján de Cuyo, at elevations reaching 3,500 feet along the eastern slopes of the Andes. These vineyards benefit from intense high-altitude sunlight, wide diurnal temperature swings and natural irrigation from Andean snowmelt. The name translates to "Colors of the Sun", referring to the brilliant light that shapes the wine's bold character. The nose shows ripe blackberry and dark cherry, rose petal, sweet mocha, cinnamon and tobacco. The palate is smooth and fruit-forward with raspberry and black cherry, sweet oak, baking spice, full body, fresh acidity and fine-grained tannins. The finish is long with mocha, vanilla and a whisper of smoke.
