Agrelo District, Luján de Cuyo, Northern Region, Mendoza, ArgentinaDecero means 'from scratch', referencing this site's natural state before the vineyards and winery were established, in Agrelo, Mendoza. Remolinos Vineyard is sited at 1050m, and takes its name from the winds that keep the vineyard clean and dry. After a month's maceration and ferment in stainless, this malbec went into 90% oak (30% new) with the remainder in stainless, for 14 months' rest. Red earth, wild cherry, and thorns are woven throughout this stony red, kept fresh even at 14.5% by the lofty windswept site. Tannins are well knit and long, stretching this into a lingering crushed floral / crushed stone finish. The Diam10 cork reveals the winery believes this single vineyard malbec a good life ahead.Tasted: 08 March 2025Tasted by: Prices:
