Drew's Tasting Note

Ripe, fresh cherries, hedgerow blackberries and blackberry leaf, cassis and quince, with hints of hazelnut, leather, and cracked black pepper. Silky smooth tannins and a tenacious finish. Delicious and elegant. Unapologetically epic. Limited edition.

Producer: Mauricio Lorca | Vintage: 2019 | From: Uco Valley, Mendoza, Argentina | Alcohol: 14.5 | Style: full-bodied red, still, vegan | Grape: Malbec
