THIS PRODUCT IS AVAILABLE FOR DELIVERY FROM 12th DECEMBER
Dry red wine, 75cl. Full bodied 100% Malbec from Gualtallary, Mendoza, Argentina. 14.5% ABV.
2017 is the best vintage yet released from this exceptional site, offering crystalline purity with lush dark cherry and raspberry compote, roses, violets and wild thyme. Always with lively freshness and firm structure, all wrapped up in a silky and glossy, chalk-powdery, textural coating. A real class act from this cool climate, high altitude Gualtallary vineyard.
"Perfumed aromas of stewed cherries, currants, sandalwood, dried spices, lemon zest, iodine and dried lavender. Full-bodied with firm, creamy and silky tannins. So
much fragrance with vivid layers of fruit, spice and dried flowers and earthier notes of mushrooms and bark. Wonderful complexity." 97pt. James Suckling
