Andeluna Malbec
Andeluna is a small boutique winery specialising in premium Bordeaux varietals of world class recognition. Their estate owned vineyards are located in the higher altitude vineyards of Tupungato, one of the best subregions of Mendoza. Their wines are under the special care of winemaker Silvio Alberto along with the expert help of French specialist and wine guru, Michel Rolland.
Viticulture: Grapes come from our vineyards located in Tupungato at an altitude of 1.300 mts. Asl. The plants are irrigated by a drop-water system that regulate and supply the exact amount of water that the plant needs.
Vinification: After selecting the very best bunches, the grapes are destemmed and fermented in stainless steel tanks. The wine is then aged in French and American oak for six months and then aged for a further six months in the bottle before release.
Tasting Note: This Malbec has great body with roundness and elegance. Intense aromas of cherry, black currant, cassis and vanilla with notes of cherry liqueur and dark chocolate combine with lush flavors of raspberries, spices, chocolate and anise that complement the sweet tannins and produce an exceptional wine with intense fruit notes and a long finish.
Winner of Decanter International Trophy for red single variety under £10.00 in the 2010 tasting, and Trophy for Best Malbec under £10.00
