Luca Old Vine Malbec 2022

Lots of mountain herbs, mussel shells and sour black cherries. Full, fleshy and fresh on the palate with fine, silty tannins and a juicy, rather minerally finish. Long and tight but caressing and pretty transparent and tactile on the palate. Drink or hold.

The 2022 Malbec Old Vine hails from La Consulta, Paraje Altamira and Pampa El Cepillo. This purple-hued wine features aromas of tea, violet, blackberry and hints of lavender. It is juicy with a smooth texture, showcasing plush tannins and a degree of compactness. The palate offers a hint of oak and the wine is broad with intense flavors. The 2022 vintage delivers a balanced and concentrated mouthfeel.

This Malbec from Uco Valley starts with delicate leafy aromas that introduce a concentrated palate of plums, cherries and a touch of tobacco. It's well structured and finishes with a dash of savory herbs.
