Altos Las Hormigas
Mendoza Malbec
Founded in 1995 by a consortium of prominent Italian winemakers, including Alberto Antonini of Antinori and Antonio Morescalchi. Dark Ruby with full ripe black fruit nose. On the palate cherry and blackberry flavors with notes of pepper and herb spice. Fine tannins slightly acidic on medium length ending with spicy notes.

Sep 2nd, 2017No hint of overripe or artificial oaky flavors. Even some hints of genuine malbec fruit. There is something unusually whole and complete about this while it remains understated.

Wine aged very well. Took 3 hours in decanter to reach a dark fruit peak. Unusual fruit to me. Not like cab or merlot. Very structured and well balanced. Malbec is blending grape to me.

Dec 6th, 2021Pretty basic Malbec. Not as deep and full as others. Very dry. Leather. Blackberries.
