A single vineyard malbec from Vistalba district of Lujan de Cuyo Dpt in Central Mendoza.
Dark black and sour plums dominate the scene with beautiful dark chocolate 80-90% cocoa. Quite nicely balanced and attractive. An allspice moving around very softly. Wide and seductive palate lingering nicely after. A malbec to enjoy best before 6 years old to my palate. A 92 point malbec and a great value. One of the top ten at 20 bucks premium level.
