Lifted, woven, fragrant.

It is grown on 30+ year old vines in Lujan de Cuyo and offers juicy purple berries, pipe tobacco, dried roses, leather, and earth. The palate stays true; lifted berry aromas and spiced cocoa flavours dominate. It is smooth, wonderfully woven and has a bright lengthy finish.
Pair: grilled or roasted meats, mushroom and thyme stuffed ravioli, hard cheeses.

This traditional method sparkling has zero dosage, making it a dry blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. It impressed me with its concentration.
Golden in colour it has a very nutty and savoury nose woven with baked apples, and warm brioche. It's robust; intense, creamy, autolytic, nutty and bordering on muscular. It's not a bright and bouncy bubbly, this one will stand up to fatty meats and grilling.

Fleshy, supple, generous.
An inky ruby shade with engaging notes of fresh red berries and blackberries, vanilla, cedar, licorice, mocha, violets and baking spice. It is supple, has a glycerol texture, generous fruit and fleshy mid-palate. Intense and postured, it has a lengthy finish trailing bittersweet chocolate.
A consistently excellent wine.
Pair: grilled or roasted meats, mushroom and thyme stuffed ravioli.

Fleshy, supple, polished.
An inky ruby red with notes of chocolate cherries, vanilla, violets, star anise, pipe tobacco, leather and a whiff of bacon. Delightfully sweet wild berry and plum flavours are underscored by spice, dark chocolate, espresso and black licorice. Supple with balanced freshness and a long finish of polished tannins.

Pairs great with Gone Crackers Parmesan & Rosemary
