Great care is taken in producing this wine from the manual harvest to the way the grapes are transported to the winery in small plastic crates so avoiding damage. After fermentation the wine is aged in oak before being fined and made ready for release. The great care taken in producing this wine has resulted in a deep red almost violet colour, with good dark forrest fruit aromatics. This Malbec has good balance of depth and strength while the palate is ample, rich with delicate soft tannins culminating in a long finish. (6 x 75 cl)
Dark, ruby purple in colour with hints of violets and spicy chocolate on the aroma. Intense sweet berries and plum jam combine fantastically with the ripe smoky vanilla twist from ageing in oak barrels. (6 x 75 cl)
