Wine Description & Tasting Notes
Hot and dry summer days and cool nights combine with the clean air and desert-like topography of the valley to ensure outstanding ripening conditions for grapes.
Despite the intense climatic features of the Famatina Valley there are many varietals that thrive, responding with a unique and intense expression.
Malbec is one of these varietals and this La Puerta Alta is packed full of character with an intensity thats pleasantly balanced and is equally delicous with a juicy steak or enjoyed on its own.
Colour: Dark ruby red
Nose: Ripe fruit characteristics of plum, blackberry and mulberry with hints of mocha and vanillin oak
Palate: Silky smooth with juicy berry fruit balanced with soft rounded tannins for an elegant long finish
