DONA PAULA ESTATE MALBEC

DONA PAULA ESTATE MALBEC

ABV 14%
The grapes for this wine are sourced from two of best vineyards on the Dona Paula estate. The first parcel has 197 hectares (almost 487 acres) and is located at Finca El Alto, in Ugarteche (Luján de CuyoSoils Upper West Luján de Cuyo are clayey to clayey loamy in the first layer of depth up to 1.20 meters (almost 4 feet) mixed with different sized gravels. The second plot has 135 hectares (almost 334 acres) and is located at Finca Alluvia, in Gualtallary (Uco Valley). Here, wind erosion has placed a thin (5 to 10 cm [around 0.16 to 0.33 ft]) natural vegetation bed. Up to 2.20 meters (7.22 feet) deep, the soil has an impressive skeletal, rocky structure composed of medium size alluvial stones coated with calcium carbonate (calcaire, caliche) that forms one of the most mineral-based soils in Argentina. Finca El Alto provides violets and deep red fruits aromas, as well as a velvety finish to this magnificent wine, while the structure and perfect acidity are provided by the grapes that come from Finca Alluvia, which is located at more than 1,350 meters (4,428 feet) above sea level and very close to the Andes Mountains, in a location that presents an incredible temperature fluctuation between day and night during the summertime.
This wine has an intense violet color; plums, black cherries, licorice and dried herbs aromas in the nose. Sweet, round and ample in the mouth, with a lingering finish.
