Higher altitudes offer more sun, less UV protection and produce a thicker skinned grape that delivers a more robust taste with fresh acidity to support it. Today this wine is crafted with a minimalist approach, no oak influence so the authentic expression of Malbec highlights the terroir of the region.

The wine comes mostly from vineyards more than 100 years old, combined with 15 year-old vineyards and located at 7,545 feet in elevation. Intense and almost black in color with violet hues, the nose highlights elegant spices and fresh floral aromas that lead to bright acidity and rich flavors of black and red fruits in.

93 Points– James Suckling

Blackberries, dark spices, oyster shells and graphite with a lift of violets. A full-bodied Malbec with round, polished tannins. Very primary with plush fruit. Showing complexity without referring to oak. Really delicious now.
