A 100% Malbec red wine from Uco Valley, Mendoza, Argentina, bottled at 14% ABV. The 2021 vintage earned 92 points from James Suckling. It is hand-harvested in small bins from vineyards yielding less than five tons per hectare, with double manual selection and two-day cold maceration at 8°C. Fermentation uses indigenous yeasts in stainless steel over 10 to 12 days, followed by complete malolactic fermentation in stainless steel, then 10 to 12 months in first-use French oak barrels. Best at 16-18°C, with 15 to 20 minutes of decanting. The nose shows ripe red plum, cherry, thyme, lavender, black pepper, tobacco leaf and chocolate. The palate is bright and fruit-forward with plum and dark cherry, full-bodied structure, lightly grainy tannins and balanced acidity. The finish is medium to long with dark fruit and herbal persistence.
