The 2019 Malbec Tintonegro Finca La Escuela is a single vineyard that comes from Paraje Altamira, Uco Valley. It was cold fermented in small batches before aging for 12 months in French barrels, 15% of them new. Purplish red in the glass. The nose delivers fresh plum, thyme, violets and a general fruitiness featuring cherry and quince. The broad palate flows juicily, stretching out the flavors. This nuanced, complex wine is very much a sum of the different parts of the vineyard it came from; its qualities enhanced by the cool year.

Plenty of rich black currant, black berry, plum and crushed gravel aromas shape the nose of this energetic Malbec from Paraje Altamira in Uco Valley. The palate is juicy, with concentrated black fruit and a mineral texture. It's an elegant wine with chalky tannins and nice acidity to freshen the delicious finish.

Lavender, blackberry, plum and sweet tobacco on the nose with a touch of mushroom. It’s medium-to full-bodied with sleek tannins. Flavorful and succulent with savory herb notes on the finish. Drink now.
