The 2019 Grande Reserve is a blend of 75% Malbec and 25% Cabernet Sauvignon from Campo Los Andes in the Uco Valley and was aged for 18 months in 50% new French oak barrels. In the glass, it’s garnet-red with a purple sheen. The nose offers balsamic notes alongside ripe plum, mountain herbs and redcurrant against a cedar backdrop. Indulgent and creamy, it has plush tannins and a well-balanced acidity, resulting in a smooth, velvety mouthfeel. This is a rich, rewarding, high altitude blend from a mild year.

This blend is made with 75% Malbec and 25% Cabernet and was aged for 18 months in oak barrels. Wood spices show on the delicate nose and smooth palate. It has a firm structure and flavors of plums, aniseed and black tea.

Tightly wound around a ball of graphite and cassis, while an elegant layer of floral berry weaves in, ending with fine tannins and hints of fresh herbs. Malbec and Cabernet Sauvignon. Drink now through 2028. 1,600 cases made, 500 cases imported.
