"An impressive expression of the Malbec grape adapted to the richness and altitude of the Potosí terroir. Meticulously crafted by the prestigious Pozo de Luna winery in Soledad de Graciano Sánchez, this single-varietal red captivates with its fleshy, vibrant, and intensely aromatic profile. With an elegant 14-month aging in French and American oak barrels, it exhibits a deep dark violet color and an aromatic range where fresh plums, blackberries, violets, black pepper, cocoa, and elegant toasted notes stand out. On the palate, it is concentrated, structured, and dry, overflowing with gentle tannins and a fresh acidity that prolongs its finish."
