A concentrated Malbec with notes of blueberries, dried fruits, raisins, coffee and a touch of herbaceousness. The vibrant palate has firm, juicy tannins, great concentration of flavour and length. There are few places on earth where magic really happens. The Calchaqui Valley, home of El Esteco winery, is certainly one of them. This Valley, located over 1800 metres (6000 feet) hidden in the north of Argentina, displays some unique characteristics. Poor alluvial soils; high sun exposure; low humidity; and broad thermal amplitude make the Calchaqui Valley an exceptional wine region.

Hand-harvested small grape bunches undergo pre-fermentation maceration at 5°C. Fermentation, using both native and selected yeasts, adds complexity. Natural malolactic fermentation in American and French barrels precedes 12 months of aging. The unfiltered wine ages for an extra 6 months at the winery before release.
