Awards
A versatile Malbec from Mendoza that is both organic and vegan friendly. Typicity is evident with the plumminess on the nose, plus baking spices from the slight oak influence. The palate brings notes of baked plums and prunes. A Malbec to serve with pizza and empanadas, a classic Argentine weeknight meal.
