Pedernal Valley, San Juan, ArgentinaThis is a better version this year. The fruit comes from the Pedernal Valley in San Juan/Cuyo and is grown at 1350m. The colour is opaque despite nearly 15 months in new American and French barrels that add a definite spicy kick to the aftertaste. Bold and youthful, it is packed full of blackberries and black raspberries covered in silky, dense, rich tannins that call for a significant piece of protein. Depending on how you like your red wine, drink or hold it for up to three years. Think grilled beef, pork, or mushroom dishes.Tasted: 09 March 2023Tasted by: Prices:

Pedernal Valley, San Juan, ArgentinaFrom the Pedernal Valley and sourced from malbec at 1350m, this approachable malbec spent fifteen months in new American and French barrels. Perfumed dusky florals open into lush blackberry, black plum, and dark earth. Tannins are a bit ragged and bitter edged, drawing this to a bitter espresso finish. Needs grilled meats to mitigate. Drinking now.Tasted: 11 April 2023Tasted by: Prices:
