2017 Bodega Luigi Bosca La Linda Old Vine Malbec, Mendoza
A$25.00
Luigi Bosca was established in 1901 by the Arizu family who still own and operate the winery today. In 1989 the family played a large part in creating Argentina’s first DOC “Lujan de Cuyo”. In all, the family have around 400 hectares of vines in the Lujan de Cuyo and Maipu regions of Mendoza with a number of spectacular Estancias. While this is a heritage winery, being family owned the winery is really progressive, constantly travelling to explore different regions and new wine styles. Luigi Bosca has been one of the first wineries to adopt a modern style of Malbec with their La Linda wines with early picks, lower alcohols, minimal oak and less extraction.

30 year old vineyard at averahe 960ml above sea level
La Linda - Old Vines is a deep red color with violet highlight. Intense aromas reminiscent of wild berries and fresh spices, typical of this grape variety. It is straight-forward and expressive in the palate, with a ripe fruit and pleasant smoked aftertaste due to its ageing in oak barrels. It is a juicy wine, with fine tannins and a balanced finish, characteristic of old vines.
