Mendel 2020 Finca Remota Malbec (Paraje Altamira)
Hailing from vineyards planted in 1947 in Altamira in Uco Valley, this red offers delicious aromas of prune and chocolate with light notes of black olive. The palate is fruit-focused and has depth, delivering layers of cherry, prune and hints of chocolate and vanilla. Vigorous acidity and chalky tannins hold it all together and lead to a pleasant finish showing oak spice. Jesica Vargas
