High Altitude Vines Selección Mendoza Malbec

Hearty balance of fruit and floral notes. Dark berry blend with a dry tart finish.

This 2016 vintage was opened June 2020 and drunk with an orzo salad and sirloin steak skewered and grilled medium rare after flavoring with cumin, chili powder, garlic and green chopped oregano. The aroma is superior with dark berry, chocolate and herb, while the taste is smooth as can be, full flavored, and lush. Definitely a great buy. Will look for and plan to stock!

Better than adequate. Would buy again.

Wow!!! So so good. With short ribs and coconut rice.

Very nice Malbec with more tannin, therefore a bigger astringent finish, than most. Lovely dark fruit, flower, and a hint of earthiness.

Nose: raspberry, grilled meat, cola, slight sweet chemical. Taste: cherry, smoke, sweeter flavors, easy drinking, light tannins. Decent development and spicier/ higher alcohol finish

Smooth, medium body, peppery, a deep, dark Malbec with layers of dark berry flavors, notes of violet and spice.

A rich nose bordering on luscious; plum, black & blueberry,
Dark fruit, notes of soft leather & light tobacco; smooth balanced tanins
A perfect, very quaffable table wine

Bien suave...

Grapey nose with hint of violets; grapes dominate the very straight forward fruity flavor, topped by moderate bitter tannins. Moderate consistent linger. Lacks complexity
