Tasting Notes

Spice and black cherry cola aromas with notes of cocoa. The berry flavors pop on the palate from its depth and lively acidity, finishing with hints of espresso.

Food Pairing

Pairs well with foods such as venison or wild game, steak, pork, quail, all types of lamb, and medium-strong cheeses.

Lots of mountain herbs, mussel shells and sour black cherries. Full, fleshy and fresh on the palate with fine, silty tannins and a juicy, rather minerally finish. Long and tight but caressing and pretty transparent and tactile on the palate. Drink or hold. James Suckling May 2024

Vines with an average age of 45 years supply the grapes for this Malbec from La Consulta, Pampa El Cepillo and Paraje Altamira. The 35% new French oak is deftly handled here, adding notes of mocha and dark chocolate to a palate of classic blackberry, fennel and damson and a grippy finish. 2025-30 Tim Atkin 2024

This Malbec from Uco Valley starts with delicate leafy aromas that introduce a concentrated palate of plums, cherries and a touch of tobacco. It's well structured and finishes with a dash of savory herbs. Wine Enthusiast October 2024
