Revancha 2021 La Gran Revancha Blend 750ml

The 2021 Blend Gran Revancha is a harmonious blend of 55% Malbec, 25% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Cabernet Franc and 5% Petit Verdot from Paraje Altamira in the Uco Valley and was aged for 12 months in third new French oak barrels. Purple in hue. The enticing nose features plum, herbs, bay leaf, lavender and nuanced oaky aromas with hints of sweet spice and sandalwood. It's dry and grippy with structured tannins that are reactive and finely grained, supported by chalky undertones. With its rich, compact profile and multiple layers of flavor, this French-influenced approach to Malbec will evolve gracefully in the bottle.
