Alta Vista Estate Malbec 2022, Mendoza, Argentina

Vibrant, enticing bouquet of red berries and chocolate, brown stony earth and barrel spices. A mix of tart and ripe fruit scents, boysenberry and plum, then a light sweet meat quality and red licorice. As the wine touches the palate there’s a tension and pull from the tannins and acidity, this relaxes quickly to reveal flavours that reflect the bouquet. Tart and ripe fruit flavours are accentuated by the acid line, fine tannins are dissolved easily on the palate. Balanced and well made in a medium weight style, with a generous dry, almost silky finish. Best drinking from 2024 through 2030.
