Varietal - Malbec
Region - Valle de Uco, Mendoza, Argentina
Tasting Notes - Wine Advocate, "There's more fruit in the 2018 Aluvional Los Chacayes than in the 2017, as if the cooler year delivered more red fruit and something juicy, but again with no sweetness at all. There is elegance and balance, a less extracted expression of Chacayes. The palate is very stony, despite the extra juiciness (and slightly higher alcohol) than the 2017, but everything is very integrated. In the cooler year, the ripeness was slower, and the wine has more ripeness and a better development of aromas and flavors but with great freshness. Great balance."
