Posture, savoury, fleshy.
This Malbec has a new look and it hails from old vines planted at 960masl on the Andes Ridge in the province of Mendoza.
Savoury notes of blackberry and smoked plums are layered with toasted spice, charred herbs, espresso and black chocolate. Its a fresh wine, supple and fleshy with smoked meat and spice flavours alongside black fruit, fleur de sel, tobacco and leather. It has notable posture and an affinity with smoked cheeses, burgers, roasted eggplant, mushroom dishes and anything grilled.

Second Review: February 2021
Attractive aromas of chocolate cherries, blackberries and dried violets atop vanilla, licorice and cardamom. Silky on the tongue it has a supple weight and sweet smooth tannins. Lovely balance here with an extended finish trailing cocoa and leather flavours.

Lifted, woven, fragrant.
A new offering in our market the La Linda also benefits fro Bosca's beautiful new label change.
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.
