Cheval des Andes Vistalba Mendoza Argentina Red 2011

99.80 € Tax included

Cheval des Andes 2011 is the result of a blend of Malbec, for nearly 70%, complemented by Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit-Verdot. It has a beautiful dark red colour with purplish reflections. On the nose, it offers great aromatic intensity and on the palate, great concentration with delicate tannins and a lot of finesse.  The grapes are harvested by hand and aged in oak barrels for 18 months before blending. It is a great Argentinian red wine, complex, which combines the richness and generosity of the great Argentine Malbec wines with the elegance, freshness and balance that the art of French blending brings. The result is a unique wine with exceptional longevity.
