LCBO Note Status
The Malbec grapes for this wine were selected from five vineyards in four growing areas: Albaneve, Azamor, Serenade, Alizarine, Temis. TASTING NOTE: Using the best Malbec grapes from Alta Vista's four farms, this is much more elegant and refined than its 15% alcohol would suggest. Perfumed, polished and showing the fine tannins that are a feature of the winery's style, it has orange peel and blackberry flavours and supporting acidity. Drink Date: 2018-24.
