I couldn't help falling in love with this wine which really shows not only the winemaking talents of Sebastian Zuccardi but also the brilliance of high-altitude Malbec. Pink flowers, milk chocolate and cherry fruit - so open and expressive, but clean and lifted. Crystalline and pure, there’s delicacy on offer here despite such detail and depth. Supple but so polished and delineated with red, blue and black fruit, cocoa powder, iris, slate and iron with a touch of spice liquorice and smokey tobacco on the finish. Juicy, sleek and utterly moreish - a wine you'll want to drink again and again and again. A wine that conveys emotion. 3.6pH.

The 2022 Malbec Finca Canal Uco was made with 90% whole bunches. It opens with lavender, violet, field herbs, sage, Morello cherry and blackberry notes. This is highly expressive and elegant. The palate is compact, rich and chalky, with length and definition. The 2022 is a great wine from an excellent vintage.

This is ferric, with notes of dried herbs and subtle dark fruit. The palate is medium- to full-bodied, precise and focused, with tight fruit and well-delineated tannins. A savory touch follows through to the saline, persistent finish. Drink now or hold.
