There's great sense of place in this Argentine Marsanne, planted at 1,200 metres altitude on gravelly soils. Elevation and wide diurnal temperature range deliver a refreshing and nuanced expression of the Rhône variety, in which quince, red apple, nectarine and melon rest on the mid-palate backed by floral notes. Earthy nuances add depth. Good acid drive.
