The 2018 Malbec Grand is a blend of grapes from Las Compuertas, Los Chacayes and Paraje Altamira making it a high end ‘Mendoza Malbec’. It was aged for 12 months in half new barrels. The complex nose features contributions from each region. The aromas include fresh and ripe plums, hints of fresh and candied blackberry, herbs and violets along with cedar, pencil box and other notes from the aging process. In the mouth, it offers sweet tannins with a fine, juicy texture, relaxed flow and long-lasting flavors. Neither entirely classical nor modern, this is an elegant wine.
