Blend and Origin
Terrazas de los Andes Malbec 2014
This textbook Mendoza malbec is crafted from grapes grown in two vineyards situated above 1,000 metres: Las Compuertas and Paraje Altamira. The growing and harvesting conditions in 2014 were unusual for the region but produced slow-ripening grapes with high acidity and concentration. The wine was aged for 12 to 14 months in a combination of new and old French oak barrels.
Additional delivery charges may apply. This product can only be purchased by persons over 18 years of age.
