Achával-Ferrer
Finca Bella Vista Perdriel Malbec
Lujan De Cuyo, Mendoza, Cuyo, Argentina
Tried a few years ago, tasting great now. Founded in 1998, Achaval-Ferrer is a team of friends who make great wines. Was lucky enough to get a taste of this beauty again. Deep Ruby with aromas of fresh berry fruits with complex spice and floral notes. On the palate flavors of cherry and rich blackberry with tobacco and cacao. Sweet fine soft tannins, long finish, well balanced with acidity ending with mineral, spice and berry fruit character. Tasting Sample.

Nov 25th, 2020Founded 1998, Achaval-Ferrer is a team of friends who make great wines. I believe this is the last of my A-F tastings, interesting fact, that all of their wines are bottled without fining or filtering. There is additional risk in this, but they prefer not to strip the wine of subtle flavors & aromas. Very dark red with aromas of black fruits, floral spice & hints of sweet notes. Layers of fruit, lively acidity, espresso & toasty notes, good balance. Fine tannins, lingering, with earthy mineral character.

For me the best producer in Mendoza, a great Malbec, great acidity, very fine tannins, gravelly.

glass-staining garnet color with lifted aromas of black fruit, espresso, violet, dried orange peel and subtle oak. High acidity that is beautifully balanced with the fruit. Lovely, very vibrant link

A wonderful bouquet of blue and black fruit ranging from cassis and blackberries to blueberries and sandalwood. A touch floral and savory on the palate from violets and thyme to add to to the bushel of fruit, lovely malbec!

A bit of cherry and some vegetal bit not a lot. Taste reflects this and it has some acidity.
