the wine

The name says it: this is Malbec as a study of the ground it grows in, all gravel and stone and cool restraint. It trades the usual plushness for tension and lift, a wine that feels carved rather than poured. For the drinker who wants Argentina with an edge.

tasting notes
Deep ruby with great aromatic intensity. Structured and complex, with layers of flavor, fresh and elegant, with crunchy black fruit, fine tannins and vibrant acidity into a fruity, persistent finish. Aged 16 months in French oak casks plus eight in bottle.
