A stunningly good wine from Montes’ Mendoza operation. Dense purple in colour with a rich nose of cassis and vanilla oak; full-bodied, elegant, fruity with flavours of black cherries, mulberries and tobacco leaf carried on fresh acidity; well-integrated oak and ripe tannins. And it has great mouthfeel.
Beautiful floral nose; layered, concentrated and elegant with depth and character showing bright penetrating flavours of blackberry, cherry, currant, liquorice and plum with full yet polished tannins, lively acidity and an incredible long, mineral-laden finish. A distinct step up from the plethora of one-dimensional Malbecs flooding the market. Producer and vineyard site do matter. The wine will definitely evolve and develop in the cellar for 5 to 8 years.
Pale straw colour offering a spicy oak, minerally, apple and anise bouquet; rich mouthfeel, full-bodied, well-integrated oak with an intriguing bitterness on the finish.
Shows good varietal nose highlighting blackcurrant, blackberry, green herb and a whiff of clove. Blackberry and blackcurrant themes persist in the mouth with solid structure and a splash of dark chocolate on the finish. Deftly made in classic Argentine style.
This winery, located in one of the southernmost vineyards in the world, only began operating in 2000. This 100% Cabernet Sauvignon is a lovely red with ripe black cherry, anise, campfire smoke, spice and currants on the nose. It is quite rich on the palate and a touch sweet, with plump juicy fruits, eucalypt, spice, currants and pepper.
An interesting nose of plums, cherry, spice, violets, vanilla and a minty nuance. It’s soft and round on the palate and loaded with ripe plums, cherries, strawberry, spice and smoky wood notes. Pair with roasted red meats.
