The Estate Collection Reserva range represents the purest expressions of each grape variety and are characterised by vibrant aromas and flavours. The Malbec is a blend of 88% Malbec, 9% Cabernet Sauvignon and 3% Syrah all from the Colchagua Valley. The 2010 growing season was cooler than average and as a result the wines are fresher, with greater natural acidity and lower alcohol levels. This wine can be drunk on release or cellared for up to 4 years. | |

Tasting note |
Intense violet color with dark fruits on the nose such as blueberries and blackberries intermingled with floral notes of violets and aromas of sweet spices. The palate is quite fruity and recalls plums and black cherries combined with subtle notes of mocha. It also has bright acidity and soft tannins that lead to a long, lingering, well-balanced, and elegant finish.
