Altos Las Hormigas Clasico Malbec 2011
Mendoza, ArgentinaThe Clasico Hormigas is grown at or above 800 metres on mostly low vigor soils in Lujan de Cujo and Valle de Uco to Alberto Antonin's exacting standards. The wine is vinified separately site by site before the final blend is made and aged using new French and American oak insert staves. The 2011 follows on and excellent 2010 once again offering a fragrant mix of red and black fruit flavours flecked with smoky dried herbs notes. The textures are ultra-silky; the style Euro classy. Serve for dinner all week long. Great value.Tasted: 02 June 2012Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:| BC | $15.00 | 750ml | specialty listing |
