Tasting Notes
The color is intense with violet tones. The typical Malbec from Argentina marks its identity with its aromas of violet and prunes. Malbec is a very intense wine and it is Cabernet-Franc who brings elegance and subtlety with very soft tannins and rose aromas. All these components provide the complexity and elegance which are necessary for a great wine. Serve at 16°C Decant for 1 hour.
Food Pairing
This wine is excellent with grilled meat, cheeses, chocolate desserts, and red fruit desserts. The Sommelier's advise: To be enjoyed with game, such as venison. Combine the balance of this Argentinian strength with the Fermier with Perigord truffle.
