This wine is made from Malbec grapes grown on forty-year-old vines planted in limestone soils. The winemaking process includes extended aging to optimize the wine’s natural balance. Only gentle techniques are used, such as gentle pressing. No sulfites are added, and the wine is not disgorged, resulting in a promising light haze. Aging on fine lees in tanks lends an interesting complexity to the texture.
