LCBO Note Status Recommended by Vintage Assessments!
TASTING NOTE: This Estate primarily comes from vineyards in Altamira, but it also has some fruit from Gualtallary and Los Chacayes, all very important areas at the foot of the Andes in the Uco Valley. It was aged for about 10 months in casks and barrels, and what comes out of them is a delicious fruit juice with gamey and spicy notes in a wine that has good grip without being aggressive.
