“Alejandro Vigil uses 5% co-fermented Semillon in this stylish, scented Paraje Altamira Malbec for added complexity. It’s a floral, alluring Malbec with plenty of color and concentration and chalky underlying acidity.”

“The rocky Altamira soils often lead to this style of austere, severe malbec’s. It has generous ripe red fruit and herbal notes, but what predominates is its savage tannic structure. The vineyard was planted 22 years ago and now offers wonderfully deep flavors, while the selection from the barrel where the wine aged for 12 months merely lends a spicy side without interfering with the fruit notes. A very good example of the place.”
