Altos Las Hormigas, Terroir Valle de Uco , Malbec 2009, By Altos Las Hormigas, USD 25
A malbec from Uco Valley at 900 mts (2,900 ft). Far better in quality expressed than previous efforts of this winery. By `quality expressed´ is meant typicity of terroir and solidity in clean tannins. Amazing black cherries & berries sweet and sour with very attractive ripeness. Good hint of green and black peppercorn. Good chocolaty note too. An interesting black fig jam dark and mounth filling. A 93 points malbec of high quality and a great value too. It´s got the tannins to envolve for the better in 6-8 years of cellar from harvest.
