Piedra Negra Chacayes Malbec

Tasting Notes

Intense red-maroon colour. Intense red fruit notes, equilibrated with coffee notes due to the stay in barrels. Complex, voluminous, with mature tanins, equilibrated, highlighting the red fruits with black flowers notes and with a persistent ending with coffee notes." The Vintage Our vineyard in Argentina has seen a year with rainfall substantially above norms, due to the phenomenon of La Niña in the Pacific.

The red grape harvests began in early April with the Malbec and finished at the beginning of May with the Cabernet Sauvignon. Slower ripening enabled us to obtain more flavour and complexity. A generous vintage, for those who were able to manage it appropriately in both the vineyard and the winery. Our wines are very well balanced on the palate and offer powerful aromatic expression.

2013 has been characterized by slow ripening and low yields in our vineyards (as has been the case everywhere in the Mendoza region), which suggests that the wines will be of excellent quality.
