This complex table blend of Malbec, Syrah, and Bonarda is perfect by the glass, but you’ll want it by the bottle.

VINIFICATION

The grapes are sourced from the La Consulta region in the Uco Valley. 60% of the blend is aged for 9 months in 2nd and 3rd use barrels, 60% French and 40% American oak.

TASTING NOTES

Aromas of red cherries and raspberries are infused with mocha and spice. Your first sip washes broadly across the palate like a flood of sweet, fresh fruit and the viscous mouthfeel keeps the flavors lingering. The hints of baking spice and some oak keep the fruit flavors fresh and lively.
