Review Summary:
This is a very special collaboration between Danish winemaker Hans Vinding-Diers (cousin of Peter Sisseck of Pingus), and Countess Noemi Marone Cinzano. The project was inspired by the discovery of a small plot of old vine, pre-phylloxera Malbec in the Río Negro Valley. From that, they've produced a small range of Malbec, Malbec blends, rosé and Cabernet Sauvignon. A Lisa is a blend of Malbec with 9% Merlot and 1% Petit Verdot, with a blend of estate and neighbouring fruit. Tight and chiseled, with pure black cherry, plum and thorny blackberry, housed by finely gritty tannins. Acidity is taut and direct, keeping this streamlined and narrow, tucked into its 13.5 degree frame.
