Classy, cedary oak with incense and cigar box to the black cherries and blackberries. Juicy and generous on the palate with tight yet silky tannins. 69% malbec and 31% cabernet sauvignon. Drink or hold.

The 2021 Blend Amancaya is 69% Malbec and 31% Cabernet Sauvignon from Altamira & Agrelo, Mendoza, aged 12 months - 50% in French oak barrels and 50% in concrete vats. Dark purple in hue. The fruit-forward nose delivers notes of plums, sour cherry and a faint trace of ash over a layer of oak. Plush and juicy, the balanced flow has finely-grained tannins and a velvety texture. Delicate and savory, it ends with a whiff of thyme.
