Altamira's smooth tannins shine through, and the combination of acidity and minerality lead the wine to a long, integrated finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"overflow-wrap: break-word;\"\u003e\"The wine is proud to be ripe and generous. Aromas dominated by smokey mulberry and blueberry. It's plush and coats the palate with bramble, blueberry and liquorice and the scent of vanilla. Immediately muscular and broad-shouldered in the glass, with a savory note, perhaps tapenade, running through the dense palate with mint and dried herbs on the finish. The oak will integrate over time, mixing its spice with the warm spice of fruit. - Joe Fattorini - The Wine Show\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"overflow-wrap: break-word;\"\u003eSunny Summer with moderate nighttime temperatures, followed by an early Fall.\u003cbr\u003eGrapes come from the Mendoza region, in the Paraje Altamira area.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"overflow-wrap: break-word;\"\u003eYIELD: 35 Hl\/HA\u003cbr\u003eMACERATION: Total 25 days, first cold-soaked 5 days, 14 days fermentation at 24° C, plus 7 additional days.

It's very harmonious and young, as classic as it gets, medium-bodied and very drinkable. It has developed some extra complexity in the bottle and comes through as complex and layered.
