Malbec 2017

- 93 points -

This is Aleanna’s most basic malbec, and like all of the house’s malbecs, it comes from the Adrianna Vineyard, 1,450 meters up in Gualtallary. The soils there are chalky, and the mountain climate marks the palate of this wine as well as its fruits. It owes those firm, tense tannins to the soil and its tart red fruits to the climate, all in a malbec that offers a very good approach to Gualtallary wines. This year’s version is particularly clean and fresh, but most of all, it’s especially nervy and tense. One of the best versions of this wine.
