Cellier Doña Paula Estate Malbec 2021

From Doña Paula, this 2021 Estate Malbec captures the character of the Uco Valley with fruit drawn from vineyards in Alluvia, Gualtallary and Los Indios, El Cepillo. The sites sit at 1,350 metres and 1,100 metres above sea level, with stony and sandy loam soils that share a high calcareous content.

In the glass, it shows an intense violet colour and a poised, fresh style. Black fruit, violet and spice aromas are joined by mineral and graphite notes, while the palate brings good concentration, medium structure, soft tannins and a persistent finish. Sustainable agricultural practices are used across the vineyards.
