7888 bottles produced from old Malbec vines planted in 1924. Dense and concentrated on the nose with aromas of sweet black plums and dried violets mingling with subtle spice and mocha. In the mouth the wine is luxuriously succulent with plush tannins and beautiful, gentle acidity with an incredibly long finish redolent of sweet blackcurrant with hints of molasses and liquorice on the end. The wine is aged in new French oak barrels for 14 months, but these barrels have very low toast levels and thus the fruit / oak integration is sublimely integrated. This is nothing short of a masterpiece that speaks volumes of its unique raw materials – very old un-grafted vines. Just gorgeous!
