This exceptional red is a field blend of old vines planted around 1940 in the Tomal Vineyard, located in the La Consulta sub-region of Mendoza’s Uco Valley. Mainly Malbec with Bonarda, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Tempranillo, it’s produced from blending four lots that were co-fermented in a variety of containers (concrete egg fermenters, open top barrels and plastic bins). The result is a ripe, concentrated and complex wine with heady fragrance (kirsch, floral and spice notes abound), remarkable texture and beautiful balance that’s easy to enjoy. It’s drinking nicely now, but has all of the hallmarks of a wine that will mature nicely in right cellaring conditions. Worth the splurge if you want to taste the Drink now to 2025.
