YIELDING: 10000 kg/ ha. Green harvest is

in small trays of 20 kg in order not to damage the

grapes. Meticulous sorting is performed by hand

prior to vinification in order to select the best

grapes.

FERMENTATION: At controlled temperature of

26°C. Four pump overs per day and a maceration

period of 20 days.

AGEING: 70% of the wine was aged in concret

tank. 30% of the wine was aged in french barrel

oak.

TASTING NOTES: Malbec is the Argentinian

flagship variety and this beautiful wine is a

truly sublime interpretation. Juicy black fruits

combine with violets and black pepper, with

soft and ripe tannins leading a soft and

opulent finish. Lovely on its own or with

juicy red meat.
