Single Lot – Malbec
ONE MOUNTAIN | ONE VINEYARD | ONE LOT
Single Lot wines are sourced from a single historic lot composed of ancient pre phylloxera vines brought from France, which have been preserved respecting their DNA and cultivated over time, with extreme care for the history of this terroir and the mountain character of our wines.
The grapes for this incredible wine come exclusively from block No. 17 of our La Esperanza estate, located in the alluvial terrace of Los Chacayes, Valle de Uco, where the plants grow in loamy-sandy soils with some limestone content and excellent permeability. This block of our estate was harvested manually at the optimal moment during the cool early mornings of late April. Once in the winery, the grapes were hand-selected.
On the nose, the fruit from carbonic maceration stands out, along with red and black fruits such as blueberries and plums, characteristic of high-altitude Malbec wines.
On the palate, it is very intriguing, with integrated, harmonious, and balanced tannins. A persistent wine with very good natural acidity and excellent aging potential.
