EL ENEMIGO - Malbec - 2017

EL ENEMIGO

Malbec 2017

- 93 points -

The El Enemigo Malbec contains 10% Cabernet Franc - Ale Vigil is a master at blending
the two varieties - and all comes from bony soils in Gualtallary in the upper part of the Uco Valley. Fermented with 50% whole bunches, this is all about fruit and flavour rather than wood, with real zip, freshness and vibrancy, chalky minerality and fine-grained tannins.
