Alta Vista Single Vineyard Albaneve Malbec, Uco Valley, Argentina 2018
The 2018 Malbec Albaneve was produced with grapes from Campo de los Andes in Valle de Uco. It’s a ripe and powerful red with 15% alcohol and a full body, very fine tannins and the freshness from the high-altitude zone. It fermented with indigenous yeasts in small concrete vats for 28 days, and the wine matured in 225- and 600-liter French oak barrels for 12 months. This comes from the highest part of the vineyard, quite aromatic. It’s very Valle de Uco, with very good balance in the palate. This is only the second vintage for this single-vineyard bottling, and it’s one step above the initial 2017.
