Objective: Creating a wine from the assembly of three varietals, with a great personality, perfectly amalgamated, where each one contributes its own virtues, achieving a different, harmonious, structured and full of aromas wine.
Tasting Note: To the goodness and complexity of the malbec wine, we have added structure and spices from the cabernet franc and volume in the mouth from a grape of great personality such as the petit verdot, achieving an assembly of a wine of good structure in the mouth, good volume and a range of species and red fruits in the nose.
