TASTING NOTES

With a very intense violet, this wine is expressive and full of aroma to the nose, reminding us of plums and spices in combination with delicate balsamic notes. Its soft tannins make it an elegant wine, at the same time full of structure and with a long ending that evidences the mineral character of Valle de Uco.

PAIRING

Ideal for cheese and appetizers of all sorts, great companion of typical empanadas from Mendoza and Argentine broiled meat.A delicious lentil stew will make this powerful blend stand out. Serve at 15°C.
