Altos Las Hormigas 2013 Malbec Clasico 750ml

The grapes are softly pressed and fermented with indigenous yeasts. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks, then aged for 10 months in concrete tanks. The 2014 vintage can be defined by this juicy Malbec. Deep ruby with flecks of blue and even brick. This wine has a nose with traditional notes of crunchy plum, cherries, and chocolate cake but surprises with hints of banana and passion fruit. Super fine tannins and balanced acidity frames a palate of plum, blueberry and white pepper. This wine is great with leaner red meats such as bison, it pairs well with strong flavours like blue cheese and earthy flavours like mushrooms and cumin spice. 90 Points, DJ Kearney, Wine Align May, 2016
