This rich Malbec boasts a deep purple hue, velvety tannins, and notes of violet, blackberry, and tobacco. The vines, over 50 years old and grown in clay-limestone soil, produce rare grapes in the Bordeaux region. Before the 10-month concrete tank aging process, the wine undergoes cold maceration and a lengthy pumping-over during alcoholic fermentation for optimal fruit extraction.
Elegant like classical ballet, lighter and fresher on the palate than the more robust Argentinian Malbecs. Dare a little madness!
