100% Malbec from two micro-blocks on Arise Bench.
WINEMAKING
Matured for 16 months in a combination of 23% new, 52% 1-year old and 25% 3-year old French Oak.
TASTING NOTE
Complex and expressive, the nose evolves from lavender to roasted plums and Mission figs to spicy notes of allspice and cinnamon. The palate is well-balanced with rich fruit offset by supple, silky tannins and oolong tea flavours. Rich mulberry and plum linger on the deep, intriguing finish.
