Abras Malbec

Blend: 100% Malbec

Location: Cafayate Valley, Salta

Altitude: 1,730m M.A.S.L.

Alcohol: 14.5% ABV

Tasting Note: Fresh plums, violets, blueberry, crushed-stone and mineral aromas on the nose lead to a fresh and brightly fruited, full-bodied palate with firm, silky tannins.

Vinification: Picking must be carefully managed in the extreme conditions of Cafayete in order to retain the proper balance and freshness for a high-altitude Malbec. Fermentation temperatures and skin contact maceration are also reduced in this regard. 50% of the wine ages in French oak barrels for 12 months, the rest remains in concrete vats.

Vegetarian: Yes

Vegan: Yes

Food Match: Barbecued meats, grilled lamb or aubergine steaks coated in Persian spices.
