Drinking Window: 2022 - 2026
From a family of Luján de Cuyo growers who have been making their own wines since 2005, this is a fruity Malbec, with savoury and spice notes that are good for pairing with steak and beefy dishes. Rich blackberry and damson fruit, liquorice, a meaty note and rounded tannins, with a long, spicy black berry finish.
