Gualtallary, Tupungato, Valle de Uco, Tunuyán, Central Region, Mendoza, ArgentinaFloral, spicy, mint, boysenberry, savoury, black cherry, liquorice and vanilla aromas. Full, round, dry, slightly leaner and astringent palate but good concentration. Vanilla, boysenberry, black cherry, peppery, tobacco, savoury, earthy, liquorice flavours. Long, warm full but tannic finish. Needs 5-7 years perhaps to round out and develop fully. There is a bit of cabernet franc and viognier co-feremented in the mix.Tasted: 15 February 2012Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
