Vina 1924 De Angeles Gran Malbec 2008

Vistalba District, Luján de Cuyo, Northern Region, Mendoza, ArgentinaThe top wine at De Angles is always impressive beginning with its peppery, smoky, savoury nose flecked with pencil lead, orange, cedar, tobacco and black cherry aromas. The attack is full, warm and rich with juicy, supple fruit. The palate mixes coffee, leather, tobacco, black cherry jam, black berry, vanilla, savoury, orange flavours with a mocha finish. Big concentration and complexity with supple tannins in a warm rich style. Buy and cellar this one for another five years. Excellent fruit and complexity.Tasted: 15 February 2012Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
