Expert Reviews
The 2024 Malbec Terroir Uco Valley was made from grapes grown in Gualtallary and Paraje Altamira. Aged 90% in concrete and 10% in large barrels for 15 months, it offers a primary expression with notes of pennyroyal, violet and mountain herbs alongside red cherry fruit. Dry and marked by a chalky texture and intense flavor, it delivers a compact palate with gentle grip. The 2024 is a pure, primary Malbec with uncommon intensity.
The 2023 Malbec Terroir Luján de Cuyo offers an uncommonly energetic, high-toned expression of Lujan de Cuyo, opening with a charming nose of mixed berries, turned earth and fresh herbs. The palate is plush and succulent yet sleek and precise, finishing with a juicy, persistent and mouthwatering finish.
