- Sumptuous and opulent black fruit flavors. Excellent structure to the palate with clean freshness through to a lengthy finish. Dark chocolate, and wild herb flavor
The grapes underwent a cold maceration before the alcoholic fermentation, to preserve the primary fruit aromas. A wild fermentation took place with native yeasts at low temperatures. The wine was then aged with new French barriques of which 50% were new, for 16 months.
A sumptuous and opulent wine showing rich, black fruit flavors, accompanied by fresh raspberries and mineral notes reminiscent of chalk and graphite. Great structure on the textured palate with balancing freshness through to an elegant finish.

Winery | Seleccion de Bodega Malbec comes from Alluvia vineyard, located in Gualtallary, Uco Valley, at 1,350 meters above sea level. This head-pruned vineyard is set on the streambed, its soil contains medium-size alluvial rocks covered with calcium carbonate patinas and intermingled with sand and chalk enamel. It is one of the poorest soils with regards to nutrients, its organic matter is almost zero forcing the roots deep into the soil in search of nutrients, and it has a great drainage capacity. The weather is cool during the days and cold during the nights. The vineyards have always been cultivated using sustainable agricultural practices. |
