Tasting profile (AI-generated)
Structure: full-bodied, medium tannin, medium acidity, dry
From the high-altitude Paraje Altamira sub-zone of Mendoza — one of Argentina's most prized Malbec terroirs — this single-vineyard Reserva shows the hallmark of the appellation: deep black plum and violet fruit with a firm but polished structure. Rocky alluvial soils and significant diurnal temperature swings lend freshness and definition, keeping the wine from feeling heavy despite its richness. Expect a savoury, earthy edge alongside the ripe fruit, with enough tannin to reward pairing with substantial red meat dishes.
Serving: Serve at 16–18 °C.
