The character of Mendoza wines is forged in high altitude desert vineyards irrigated by mineral-rich snowmelt from glaciers and snowfields. Altitudes range from 1,000 feet to around 5,000 feet, where the foothills rise steeply toward the Andes’ peaks. High altitude means cool temperatures and clear air, and clear air means more sunlight for building flavor in the grapes, helping to make Mendoza the source of Argentina’s well-earned reputation for top quality, unique wines.

The wine has a dark, rich color and offers aromas of blackberry, blueberry, and dark chocolate, with hints of vanilla and spice. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and complex, with flavors of black cherry, plum, and tobacco, complemented by firm tannins and a long, smooth finish.
Dark, deep purple in colour and has a brooding and perfumed bouquet. The palate is rich, layered and textured - really fills the mouth with its immense power and weight, but retains its finesse with long, soft integrated tannins. This wine will cellar and improve for 8 - 10 years, but equally appeals as an immediate drink.

Like their Grenache and Mataro wines, the Malbec undergoes a similar winemaking process that results in a polished, vigorous, and sophisticated final product.
