Terrazas Reserva Malbec

Wine information: The Terrazas Reserva wines are hand harvested from select estate vineyards within the top districts of Mendoza: Tupungato, Vistalba Perdriel and Cruz de Piedra. Based on over 47 years of research and experimentation with local microclimates and terrain, each selected terrace has been matched with a unique varietal to express its maximum potential. 100% Malbec Only the free-run wine is moved to 80% French, 20% American oak barrels; 1/3 new, 1/3 one year old, 1/3 two years old. The wine spends close to twelve months in barrels before being lightly fined with egg whites and bottled. Profound cerise in colour with florid, rubicund highlights. The nose has aromas of freshly crushed violet flowers, a deep core of jam preserves and ripened plums typical of Mendoza´s Vistalba region. The palate has racy notes of violet and graphite, which are followed by mouthfuls of dry cherries and fresh berry fruit. The luscious mid-palate, gives way to powdery tannins and a delicate herbal blend infused finish that adds to complexity.
