Estancia Uspallata, Igneo 2019
This is the first release of this brilliant blend of Malbec with 10% Pinot Noir and Cabernet Franc, made with grapes from the loftiest vineyard in Mendoza at 2,000m in remote Uspallata. Produced with 70% whole clusters and showing enticing aromas of lavender and sage, it has sappy, savoury tannins and flavours of white pepper, blackberry and red cherry.
