Extra ripeness in the vineyard translates to a more generous core of red-black fruits. Blackberry and fresh cracked pepper entwine perfectly with matured and lengthy tannins on the finish. Drinking beautifully now, pair it with darker fowl, grilled meats and salmon.

The 2009 Merlot has a perfect balance of blackberry, chocolate, leather flavors and mild tannins developed from a long summer ripening season and a full extraction during fermentation.
Opaque violet, almost black color typical of top quality Argentine Malbec. Intense aromas recalling ripe red berries, plums, blackcurrant, blackpepper with notes of candied fruit and marmalade. Subtle notes of chocolate, coffee and nuts are given by its long ageing in new French oak. Silky palate and soft rounded tannins with notes of blackberries, spices, truffles providing aromatic complexity for an exquisite finish.
