Our Malbec Reserve is deep red-violet in color. Aromas of black fruit, cherries
with floral tones integrated with tobacco. Good intensity on the palate soft and
delicate at the end.
VINIFICATION
The grapes were handpicked in April and transported to the winery in plastic bins, where
they were gently crushed and deposited in stainless steel tanks. Approximately 80%
of the fruit underwent a cold soak at 10ºC (50ºF) for three days to enhance color and
improve the extraction of the fruit flavors. Alcoholic fermentation was carried out at
26º–30ºC (79º–86ºF) with three pumpovers daily.
Post-fermentation maceration was also carried out, according to the development of
each batch, and the wine was kept in contact with the lees for 10 to 20 days. Following
this maceration, 70% of the wine was aged for approximately six months in French oak
barrels to help round out the wine and smooth out the tannins. Once the final blend
was obtained, the wine was cold decanted and lightly filtered before bottling.
