Tax included
Cheval des Andes 2002 is the result of a blend of Malbec, for nearly 70%, complemented by Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit-Verdot.
This great Argentinian red wine requires a little patience to be appreciated and reveals itself here totally with an ageing of almost 20 years: it offers a dark red color and on the nose, a great aromatic intensity on black fruits and spices, with minty notes. On the palate, the substance is silky and concentrated with delicate tannins and offers a gourmet wine, both fleshy and with a lot of finesse. The finish is very persistent, harmonious and fresh.
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.
