Description: Characterised by its great structure, sweetness and its aromas of spices, ripe plums, coffee, cherries and violets. After 18 months in fine oak and 14 months in bottle it acquires aromas of vanilla. Velvety on the palate. Since vines were first cultivated in Vistalba, viticulturists have cultivated a grape called Malbec Verdot. In Finca Los Nobles we have determined that in those days vineyards were a mix of Malbec and, , Petit Verdot, plus some which possessed the characteristics of both. We have continued to respect these vineyards which express the true character of the region. The wine: Manual selection of grapes, then destemming. Controlled fermentation at 26º (6 x 75 cl) Price: £143.12

Altos las Hormigas Mendoza Malbec Argentina
Description: Showing excellent depth of colour, this Malbec has youthful, almost floral perfumes which give way to fresh, chunky fruit characters with flavours of red berries and liquorice. Soft, rounded tannins balance and add depth to the juicy fruit. It has good length, with lingering chocolate and liquorice on the finish. The grapes for this wine are a blend of those grown on the Altos estate with those bought in from contracted grape growers in la Consulta, Vista Flores and Eugenio Bustos, in the Valle de Uco area as well as growers from Perdriel and Vistalba, districts in Luján de Cuyo. The vineyards in La Consulta, Vistalba and Perdriel are situated at 900-1000 metres above sea level. Some of the vines are 80 years old. The climate here is semi-desert, with hot days and cool nights, which help the aromatic development of the grapes. Alberto Antonini and his Tuscan friend, Antonio Morescalchi were so impressed with the vineyards in the area following their first trip to Argentina in 1995, that they persuaded a few friends to join them and bought this estate. Situated in Lujan de Cuyo, one of Mendoza’s premier growing areas, facing the Andes to the east, this property covers 216 hectares, of which 40 were planted between 1996 and 1999. They also buy in grapes, primarily from La Consulta . (12 x 75 cl) Price: £93.84
