Argento Reserva Malbec Organic 2014

Paraje Altamira, Valle de Uco, Tunuyán, Central Region, Mendoza, ArgentinaThe 2014 organic malbec comes off Paraje Altamira not far from the village of La Consulta in the San Carlos department. All 25 hectares are organic and 22.5 hectares are planted to the flagship malbec at 1090m above sea level. The site is awash in large rocks and there is an accumulation of prized calcium on their surface. At three years old the fruit and the wine is precocious with wonderful soft tannins and juicy pure black fruit flavours with surprising power and finesse for such a youthful project. Stunning quality for the price that would work with most roasted meats or chicken.Tasted: 12 April 2016Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
