Description

Malbec Mendoza is an inevitable reflection of the variety that is emblematic for our country, the Andes mountain ranges and the sun. Composed of several vineyards, located in the main geographical references that the Cuyana province offers, this young, powerful and velvety wine expresses pleasure, smooth and soft, uniting earth and flavours in one strong and clear message. This wine explains Malbec and Mendoza in a universal language.
