El Esteco, Don David Reserve, Malbec 2021
DESCRIPTION
his Malbec is ruby red with intense violet highlights. Its nose is aromatic and indulgent with notes of berries, plum jam, and fine, fragrant red currant acidity. The palate mirrors the nose with subtle hints of oak and vanilla, and its tannins are firm yet round. A harmonious and characterful Malbec with a lovely fruity finish.
REGION
Cafayate
Argentina
Cafayate is a wine region in northwestern Argentina, located in the Calchaqui Valley - one of the highest places in the world suitable for viticulture. The Calchaqui Valley surrounds Cafayate and has some of the most spectacular scenery in Argentina, changing quickly and dramatically from desert to mountains and subtropical climate. The terroir is particularly suited to the Torrontes Riojana grape, but wines made from Malbec and Cabernet Sauvignon are also produced here.

A well-balanced Malbec with aromas of dark fruits and soft spices. I appreciate its smooth structure and mellow tannins.
