the wine
Altos Las Hormigas built its name chasing terroir over power, and Meteora is the label at its most refined. Grown on the chalky soils of Paraje Altamira and raised in concrete, it is lean, mineral and beautifully sculpted, a Malbec with the poise of a much pricier wine. One to sit with and pay attention to.
tasting notes
Purple in hue, with a subtle, nuanced nose of violet, sage and fennel alongside plum and blackberry. Dry, lean and chalky, with an athletic, focused profile. A modern, beautifully sculpted red. Aged 12 months in concrete.
