From vineyards situated at over 1000 metres above sea level, this is a Malbec of Mendoza's trademark intensity and purity of fruit, which is further enhanced by use of only the free-run wine, aged for 12 months in a mixture of new and old French and American oak barrels. The wine is harmonious and smooth, with racy notes of violet and graphite, followed by mouthfuls of dry cherries and freshberry fruit.
