Production

The grapes for this Organic Malbec come from Finca Los Durmientes, located in the Uco Valley, at an average altitude of 1,030 meters above sea level. The soil is deep sandy loam. The grapes are brought into the winery and cooled for a cold maceration process lasting 3 to 5 days. After this, alcoholic fermentation takes place over 10 days. The wine is made with reduced amounts of sulphur dioxide and with all the care required by organic production standards. It is a low-intervention wine. During ageing, it is kept in stainless steel tanks on its fine lees to enhance its flavour.

Tasting notes

A violet-coloured wine with aromas of cherries, plums, and a slight menthol note typical of the estate where it originates. On the palate, it is smooth and round, with good acidity and pronounced fruity notes.

Food match

Seared Duck Breast, Pork Ribs, anything with all spice.
