ABOUT THIS BOTTLE
This wine is a seamless blend based on Malbec’s red-fruit character, inlaid with spices and silkiness from Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. It’s bold from the start, voluminous on the palate, and wonderfully balanced by acidity and round tannins. Typical Malbec aromas of ripe red fruit jams are combined with the fine notes of black fruits and spices provided by the Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. This is a deep purple wine that has a strong presence from the start. It develops all its volume with a high impact in the middle of the mouth, showing its good acidity and round tannins resulting from the balanced blend of the three strains.
