WINE NOTES
100% Organically grown at over 2700 ft. above sea level in Mendoza, Argentina on the Caligiore Estate Vineyards. This wine was produced with the first run juice from “old vine” Malbec (75+ year old vineyards). Round and rich, this Malbec has an extended maceration period to ensure firm, yet soft tannins emerge from the fruit, not wood or oak.
